Next President and why

There has to be a middle ground for immigration. We cannot just seal up the southern border and deport every illegal immigrant out there. First, both are monumental tasks. So, why not start by allowing the illegal immigrants to become legal. I'm not talking about all of them, but how about the ones that contribute to society? How about the ones that have not committed any felonies in this country? I know a couple of them that are here working on expired green cards, and what is really surprising is that they actually pay their taxes. How about we charge them a "back tax" to become legal, and then we go from there.

Then, we require law enforcement to crack down on the rest of the illegals. Most criminals will get caught again. So, how about requiring local law enforcement to communicate with INS. In the county I live in, it is local law enforcement's policy not to look into whether or not somebody taken into custody is an illegal immigrant. Heck, I know a guy that has been arrested twice, once for a DUI and another time for driving without a license, and after both trials they let him loose even though he is illegal.

I have a better idea, how about keeping all the hard working, law abiding illegals here and shipping the welfare recipients and criminally motivated illegals to South America. We can take care of two problems using an express lane.
