Maxine is depressed:
Over five thousand years ago, Moses said to the children of Israel,
"Pick up your shovels, mount your asses and camels, and I will lead
You to the Promised Land."
Nearly 75 years ago, (when Welfare was introduced) Roosevelt said,
"Lay down your shovels, sit on your asses, and light up a Camel, this
Is the Promised Land."
Today, Obama has stolen your shovel, taxed your asses, raised the
price of Camels and mortgaged the Promised Land!
I was so depressed last night thinking about the new Health Care Plan,
the economy, the wars, all the lost jobs, savings, Social Security,
retirement funds, etc .... I finally called a Suicide Hotline.
Of course, I had to press "1" for English.
I was connected to a call center in Pakistan. I told them I was suicidal.
They got all excited and asked if maybe I could drive a truck......?
Folks, we're screwed.
Act. Of. Love.

TRUMP JOINS CRITICAL MASS OF OTHER CANDIDATES IN MAKING LEGAL IMMIGRATION NUMBERS A BIG ISSUE
TRUMP JOINS CRITICAL MASS OF OTHER CANDIDATES IN MAKING LEGAL IMMIGRATION NUMBERS A BIG ISSUE
| |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|
The dust is kind of settling after a week-long wind-storm of news media pressing Presidential candidates to express a position on various aspects of immigration policy.
We know a lot more now than we did a week ago. And we'll tell you what we know right here. This overview is the result of two long NumbersUSA Grade Committee meetings yesterday.
BIG CHANGES FOR 9 CANDIDATES IN 'BIRTHRIGHT' RATING
Let's start with the topic that got the most media attention. Many in the news media seemed shocked to learn of a movement to end giving U.S. citizenship to babies born to the 11-18 million illegal aliens and to the 45 million tourists, foreign students and guest workers who come to our country each year on legal short-term visas.
The issue is old hat for NumbersUSA members. During our 19 years, we have always included this issue in our congressional candidate surveys, in our congressional grade cards and in our Presidential Hopefuls grade cards.
Reporters, thanks for finally noticing the issue and asking candidates a question we've wanted you to pose for years.
Here are the changes in birthright citizenship Worker-Protection Ratings caused by new statements:
BUSH: changed Rating from No Action to VERY HARMFUL
CARSON: from No Action to VERY GOOD
CHRISTIE: from No Action to GOOD
CRUZ: from No Action to VERY GOOD
FIORINA: from Unhelpful to VERY HARMFUL
JINDAL: from No Action to VERY GOOD
PERRY: from No Action to UNHELPFUL
RUBIO: from No Action to VERY HARMFUL
TRUMP: from No Action to EXCELLENT
In addition, the following candidates stuck with the positions (and Ratings) that they had previously staked out. (Santorum and Paul deserve special recognition for taking strong stands long before Trump stirred the media's interest this past week.)
EXCELLENT: Santorum
VERY GOOD: Paul
1st STEPS: Graham
NO POSITION: Chaffee, Walker
UNHELPFUL: Biden, Clinton, Sanders, Webb
VERY HARMFUL: Huckabee
ABYSMAL: Kasich, O'Malley
"Birthright" babies eventually grow up. A few hundred thousand of them turn 18 each year and begin competing with a giant surplus of American workers who already are competing for too few jobs.
"Harmful" (red) Ratings mark candidates who are willing to continue adding to the worker surplus and making life that much harder for Americans on the economic edges.
"Good" (green) Ratings mark candidates taking a position that can eventually tighten the labor market and improve the opportunities for struggling workers. It is important to remember that the immediate effect on the labor market is that birthright citizenship causes large numbers of adult illegal aliens to feel they can remain working in the U.S. because they have a child who has been made a U.S. citizen. Our government tends to allow nearly all of them to stay once they have a baby here.
READ THEIR STATEMENTS
Find the full quotes of each candidate by:
(1) going to www.NumbersUSA.com/2016
(2) clicking on the photo or name of a candidate
(3) scrolling through the text to find quotes from that candidate on each of the 10 categories of immigration issues
We rate each candidate on their most recent statements of position. We give consideration to previous statements and actions, and also on how their positions compare to those of other candidates. (Be sure to read the text below the big Grade Grid for much more explanation of our process.)
On birthright citizenship, the details that improve a rating are (1) disapproval of the practice, (2) intent to change it, (3) preference for starting with legislative change rather than a constitutional amendment, (4) amount of attention given the issue, and (5) the public spotlight given the issue.
CHANGED RATINGS ON OTHER WORKER-PROTECTION IMMIGRATION ISSUES
A number of candidates made their immigration positions more worker friendly and got improvements in Ratings:
BUSH on Implementing Interior Enforcement improved from 1st Steps to GOOD.
WALKER on Implementing Interior Enforcement improved from No Action to GOOD.
CHRISTIE and KASICH on Border Security improved from 1st Steps to GOOD.
FIORINA on E-Verify improved from 1st Steps to GOOD, and on Amnesty improved from Unhelpful to MIXED.
RUBIO on Finishing the Entry-Exit System improved from Mixed to 1st STEPS.
Other than on the birthright citizenship issue, only one candidate out of the 21 being tracked had a ranking changed to more anti-worker:
KASICH on Unfair Work-Visa Competition worsened from No Action to HARMFUL.
Thanks to all of you who have shown up at rallies, communicated with staffs, sent emails and letters to candidates, commented on news web sites, radio shows, tweets and Facebook. Combined, your actions are moving the overall conversation in the right direction.

If you enter the US illegally you are not a citizen and have no rights other than deportation.
Forget about reebies under Trump. The 14th. Is not and was not an anchor baby amendment.
Get them ILLEGALS out! Eisenhower deported the illegals at once! Why not our next president?

BORDER SURGE DRIVES UP ENROLLMENT IN NYC SCHOOLS
UPDATED:
Thu, AUG27th 2015 @ 1:09 pm EDT
The NYC Department of Education told the schools that it plans to enroll 2,350 illegal alien children this year, with more to come. This is after the 5,000 children that ended up in New York state after last year's surge of unaccompanied minors across the border. NYC has already invested $50 million of taxpayer funding for the 1,662 minors that came across the border during the summer.
Parents are worried about the current strain this increase of students will have on their children's education.
"NYC public schools are already failing to meet the needs of the students they have -- 70 percent cannot read, write and do math at grade level. How can they handle thousands of new students competing for the same services without things getting worse," asked Sam Pirozzolo, vice president of the New York City Parents Union.
DOE officials have declined to give out exact numbers of recently enrolled illegal alien children or the costs to the taxpayers. Based on last year's spending, NYC spent $20,749 per student which would bring the total for the migrant kids to $48.7 million. This does not include state mandated English-language instruction, free or reduced-price lunch, and the medical and dental coverage that many of these illegal alien minors will also receive.
Under US law, all children have a right to enroll in school and receive government services, regardless of immigration status. Unless government officials announce that funds will be issued to help, it will be up to the already-struggling schools and local taxpayers to provide these services.

You are COMPLETELY IGNORANT and WRONG.
The bill of rights applies to non-citizens as well as citizens. This has been settled law and taken up affirmed by the supreme court a LONG time ago. Even the most conservative people, like Scalia on the supreme court, accept this and understand it to be 100% true.
You right wing nuts need educate yourselves!
The reporter asked a voter named Cesar, "you’re supposed to be offended by Trump, he said Mexico is sending over criminals, he has been unfriendly, you’re an immigrant. Cesar shook his head: No, you have it wrong. Immigrants, he said, don’t like illegal immigration, and they’re with Mr. Trump on anchor babies. “They are coming in from other countries to give birth to take advantage of the system. We are saying that! When you come to this country, you pledge loyalty to the country that opened the doors to help you.”
America Is So in Play
In The Wall Street Journal, columnist Peggy Noonan says America is so in play—Donald Trump’s staying power in the polls reflects a change in the electorate only now coming into focus.

A Voice for the Victims Killed by illegal aliens
_____________________________________________________
Trump Tells Families:
"We're going to give you a voice"
NOORWOOD, MA - At an event, "Ernie's Summer Bash," hosted by Ernie Boch, a billionare who owns car dealership throughout Massachussetts on Friday, GOP presidential front runner Donald Trump met with eight family members of America's "Stolen Lives", those Americans killed by illegal aliens. This was Trump's third such meeting with families."We're going to give you a voice"
Mr. Trump first spoke to Maureen Maloney (photo below),of Milford, MA, and mother of slain Matthew Denise. She told Trump, "Thank you for everything you are doing.” Then, quickly asked, "Will you close the borders?" to which Trump firmly replied, "We'll get them closed. Believe me...they'll be closed."
Trump turned to her husband, Mike, who said, "We lost our son, Matthew, four (4) years ago." "How did he die?" Trump asked.
"He was killed by an illegal alien who was driving drunk." Mrs. Maloney interjected. "He actually survived that accident...but the illegal fled and dragged Matthew a quarter mile to his death."
Embracing Mrs. Maloney, Trump offered: "We're going to take care of things."
Mr. Trump, replied, "Thank YOU for speaking out, YOU are the brave one."
Mrs. Laquerre continued, "The only thing that has changed since my brother's death is the body count."
Trump concurred loudly, "It's gotten worse."
Moving along the line of families who were holding a Stolen Lives Quilt banner memorializing slain American citizens, Mr. Trump listened to Christine and Jeff Fromer, Boston residents, tell of their 19 year old son, Joshua Fromer, who was killed in a vehicular homicide by an illegal alien, exactly 10 years ago.
In August of 2005, Joshua was motorcycling to work
Michael Fromer, Joshua's younger brother, told Mr. Trump, "You're giving us a voice that needs to be heard.”
Trump replied, "We're going to give you a voice."

It's for this reason many family members do not trust the media, and why they need YOU to be their voices demanding:
a Secure Border, and
Enforcement of Current Laws
