McCain
« on: May 05, 2016, 04:15:51 PM »
So y'all think a Trump candidacy is a bad thing? John McCain seems to think having Trump at the top of the ticket could end his run as a senator.

I'm having difficulty envisioning a bad side to McCain not being reelected ...

The bad side: Someone else might get elected that will vote with the Dems on everything.
The good side: nothing really changes.

.....and that changes the status quo how?
Impressed yet befogged, they grasped at his vivid leading phrases, seeing only their surface meaning, and missing the deeper current of his thought.

He says his state is 30% Hispanic.  Are all those Hispanic voters pro-illegal immigration?  I have many legal immigrants who would disagree.

Legal immigrants are in general, vehemently anti illegal immigration. It's sadly often another story for their kids and grand kids that went to college (your mom goes to college!) and got indoctrinated. Or even earlier than college. I still remember the entitled La Raza (an official school group) horses asses in High School.

Legal immigration needs to be made easier.  Illegal immigration needs to be made almost impossible.  You have to do both (the latter first) to have a workable system.  Too many in power on both sides of the aisle like the current situation just fine, because illegals are easier to exploit.
