Excellent comment Fidel.
And yes, a lot of people would call you any number of names, including a racist had you not been of south american heritage.
What THOSE people would be guilty of though is racism in another way.
Against the 1000′s of OTHER immigrants NOT of south American heritage. Russians, Czechs, Chinese, Korean, Turkish, French, Spanish, English, Irish and every other immigrant who want in this country just as much, work just as hard yet wait as is the LEGAL way to become american citizens. Who don’t parade through the streets of California’s cities waving THEIR flag telling San Diegans residents that WE should leave and screaming discrimination that American citizens would dare even dream of saying that English ought to be the offical language, or that people at least be citizens to vote. How our politicians disgrace themselves by pandering to such ideologies and demands should be treated as treason.
My great-grandparents came her too, from Europe and had to wait to become citizens just like everyone else during their time of immigration. They learned english, built a business and hired american citizens. They added to our country as yours did. There was no medicare/aid/welfare/entitlements for them.
Citizenship is a privledge NOT a right to be given like so many entitlments given illegal immigrants today.
It is disgusting the way our politicians are giving this country away, for a vote.
