What if you were US citizens would you even consider being part of the "DREAM Act" cause. Would you help organize and be part of the movement for the undocumented illegal youth. Or would you have second thoughts, would you even care, or would you just be too busy to take part? What are your thoughts?

I agree. I would have NO interest in politics whatsoever and I think that being in this position has helped me tremendously in my government classes

^ yes not surprised by answers but its quite troubling how ignorance can prevail through different circumstances. I myself would have second thoughts on the subject, and so we should not be surprised at the Dream Act's failure to pass throughout all these years.

The thing is that it is unrealistic to believe that a regular US Citizen would have any interest on this topic and most people that become activists are because they have relatives, friends, or someone in that position.

^ perhaps a regular US citizen is too blind to notice. There is too much misinformation about the subject in general.

"It is impossible to defeat imperialism without identifying its head: the United States of America.
In a capitalist system, most people live in an invisible cage. For example, there you accept the myth of the self -made man, but don’t understand that the opportunities of most people are determined by forces they don’t even see" – Ernesto Guevara

Exactly, I don't think your average American has any idea people like us exist. They probably assume all us 'illegal aliens' are Mexicans who hopped over the border last week. If more people knew about us and DA it would've passed long ago. The only people who'd want to kick us out are racists looking for any excuse, which is sadly a good portion of the US population but not the majority.

I think the average citizen cares most about the unemployment rate above all and not much else, and losing their homes

If I was an American-born USC, who dropped out of high school, never went to college and worked at a dead-end job, you bet I would oppose any bill that would legalize educated illegal students.
