The Mexican tribalists like Ruben Navarrette use the waves of illegal immigrants from their tribe as a way to bolster their political and cultural power in the United States; down the line, those numbers will mean that they can continue to bypass US immigration laws that are supposed to apply to all tribes equally. When the Mexican tribalists muddle the distinction between legal and illegal immigration (which they do as a matter of course, and it is quite calculated and intentional), what they are really trying to do is make sure their tribe has a tremendous advantage over any other tribe in getting in to the US.
The Mexican tribalists do not care about other tribes or ethnic groups, only their own; they are not universalist in their aims or outlook, rather, they are narrowly provincial, selfish, and tribal. The best way to put an end to the waves of gate-crashers and line-jumpers is for all the legal immigrants from tribes other than Mexicans to stand up and make a colossal stink about the Mexican illegals and their tribal apologists in this country.
