So you believe all immigrants should be required to learn English?
I agree with Thomas Jefferson when he said immigration is "a right which nature has given to all men, of departing from the country in which chance, not choice, has placed them." and that America should be open those people.
I also agree with Thomas Paine that the United States should be "the asylum for the persecuted lovers of civil and religious liberty."

Yeah. I have no problem with them coming in if they cannot have access to the welfare system for least 10 years of paying taxes.

Dodged that question like a true democrat. I'm curious of your stance on this.

Obviously you are just another troll because you refuse to address the welfare issue.

Fantastic.
Doesn't mean they should get access to our benefits or completely ignore to learn the language dominantly spoken in the US.
Would you go live in Mexico and not learn spanish? Of course not. But you're probably not ignorant either.

Haha- seems like you just read some Wikipedia entries. I sense such deep-seated conviction in your "I agree" statements. You truly sound like a man of principle and deep thought.
