The main point you were trying to make in your post seems to be that we should not support legislatures such as McCain and Kennedy's, meaning amnesty for all 11 million here. And the answer is we dont. We support Senator McCain and Senator Kennedy because they cosponsor the DREAM Act. I honestly think that their bill has no chance if not in the Senate then in the House, because it is way different from what the other half of the debate wants.

What we do hope is that the DREAM Act is ammended to a comprehensive immigration reform bill, whatever it might be. And there are only a few Senators, Kennedy, McCain and Durbin being some of them, that can actually introduce such an ammendment. All we want is for them to still have a word and to stay in the debate. Simply because DREAM will never happen if people like Senator Tancredo or Senator Cornyn dominate the Senate. They simply shut their eyes to our problem and point their finger screaming "illegal, get out!".

In the same way that you resent being called a "LAZY AMERICAN" we resent being called an "ILLEGAL ALIEN".
From our perspective, your group and ours, are equally American.
