Definitely agree with reaching critical mass though. It's only a matter of time.

Yeah of course, we have that extra burden. We do have power in a few ways:
1. Those with DACA are free to participate in politics - helping pro immigration candidates.
2. We can all push our citizen friends and family to vote Democrat (sorry, the choice right now is Democrat or Hate-mongering Republican)
3. Doing what Univision did and stand up for ourselves and vote with our wallets.
