The quote is often misreported as “I am, you know, adamantly against illegal illegal immigration."

Larado in Texas and Neuvo Larado in Mexico are from a social and economic point of view, a single city. However, precisely because of the easy access and mobility, some Americans wanted a barrier to try and curtail the flow of illegal aliens coming to the United States to work. The nation was split between those who wanted the Mexican labor in the United States and those who opposed it.

Ironically, where national quotas have been used in American immigration policy, it has rarely been used to keep nationals of countries with which we were having difficulty, out.

He started the "Dreamers"-the 2 million children who were brought to America at very young ages by parents who did not enter legally. They have grown up in America and it is the only home they have ever known. Many do not even speak or are not literate in the language of their birth country and their only roots and allegiances are to the United States. There was a very loud and passionae minority of South Carolina voters who wanted these children to be departed to countries most have no memories or knowledge of--to punsh them for the "sins" of their parents.
