Little girl shares immigration message with pope
San Francisco Chronicle ^ | September 23, 2015 | Brian Witte

A 5-year-old girl in a brilliantly colored dress and braids who was handed up to Pope Francis for a blessing during a parade in Washington on Wednesday morning urged the pontiff to give his blessing to immigration reform and push lawmakers to act.

Sophie Cruz, of South Gate, California, delivered a bright yellow T-shirt and a letter expressing wishes that her mother and father and millions of others who are in the U.S. illegally are allowed to remain in the country. Her trip was sponsored by an advocacy group.

Sophie's father called the day extraordinary.

"It was a miracle," he told a reporter in Spanish.


Came here 10 years ago but still doesn't speak English.

Kathryn Steinle would have like to spoken to the Pope but she can't because she was murdered by an illegal alien.

It’s never a 5-year-old saying, “We have the right to choose who can be here and when. We’re not the world’s dumping ground.”

Obola’s politics. Again.

But, in the White House. Not a word about 63 millions babies murdered by the democrats. Not a word to Castro about freedom.

He is a immoral coward. And a socialist.
And so is Obola.

You know, so what about the Pope... big deal! Let him yap his little yapper. He has no real influence other than Catholics who refuse to examine his leftist leanings, and those who look past that already engage in leftist-voting at the poles anyway.

Correct - it couldn’t have been more staged. What a co-inky-dink.

In other news, a woman along the line interviewed by NBC, said: “For a moment today, the whole world came together as one”.

I probably missed by a word or a few, but that’s essentially in a nutshell how she said.

And doesn’t realize it’s somewhat prophetic in nature.

Agreed. This was scripted. The worst one I saw was during the 2002 Senate race between Dick Durbin and Jim Durkin. They visited a grade school and some 10 year old kid "spontaneously" asked the Republican candidate: "In a nation of such wealth and prosperity, why can't we afford universal health care for all Americans?"

The pope has sold himself out to naked partisan political interests.

This is incredible.

Several years ago, there was the usual pro-illegal story in the San Antonio newspaper about a 96 year old woman who had recently been granted citizenship and was going to vote for the first time. She had been in America over 50 years and spoke no English, which is a requirement for citizenship, by the way.

That’s how stubborn Mexicans are about clinging to the language of the Spanish, who conquered their forefathers. Strange.
