Could you flesh this out?

Whats that mean?

What would the privatization of the public school system look like. Would it be based on a voucher model ?

For those members who were against it, please tell me in your own words your reasons for objection.




Does not go far enough.

Babies being born all over North America and South America that we are not even trying to lay claim to, we are going to need this youth and energy and potential earning power.

Lets make everyone under sixteen on the American contenients potential Americans.

It isn't an insurmountable problem that they will bring expense , but it is a resorce that we will sorely wish we had if we don't go get it , every dime they cost us they will earn back for us a hundred fold.

It is a perfectly safe assumption that very few of these people are willingly Columbians or Argentines or Guatamalans or Mexicans , we should draft them into our nation, the petty soverenty of their nations be dammened.

If we organise the evacuation of our southern neighbors we can controll it better , when all of that territory has emptyed we should make a park of it all.That would put a major dent in global warming.

Wouldn't it be easier to just move the borders southward and northward?

Is there enough room on the flag for 80+ stars?

How different is this than what UP was proposing?


Hey that is even better!

Since it is odvious that the people of these countrys are itching to become Americans wouldn't that be the easyest and fastest method?

There just aren't any drawbacks .

See, people like this aren't Americans. They're quitters. Things change, the world evolves, good times turn to rough times, and people like this can only run away and hide. Well, it's for the better I guess. We don't want this kind of person infecting the whole system. Hopefully they'll wind up moving to Canada, or Brazil, or wherever.

It appears to me that Democrats and the current administration in particular aren't interested in 'Americans' or the 'American' way. They are hellbent on destroying everything American and the values that created our great nation. Many of these people aren't anything like John Wayne, George Washington or Thomas Eddison. They are a spiteful hating group with a chip on their shoulders and want certain Americans to pay the price for past 'sins' of slavery & racial injustice. If you catch my drift!!

I left that part of the world when I was 3 years old and never looked back.

isn`t that what a charter school is?

one subject about education that seems to never get much attention is a schools ability to choose it`s students.This subject  greatly effects a schools performance. If a private school should be compared to public school shouldn`t it be rated by how no student is denied entry or expelled ,then by grades?

"SNOWBLOWER JR ?"

Well, we are pretty familiar with snowblowers here in New England. We're also familiar with the best colleges, the smartest people, a magnificent coast line, an historical heritage, the best looking women, delicious seafood, a plethora of interesting accents, narrow steep icy gnarly ski trails, world class hospitals, deep woods, wild northern lakes, great duck hunting, covered bridges, old white church steeples looking over autumn colors, cobblestone streets, pine covered islands, ......................on and on.............

Somehow to you slavery and racial injustice was not a "sin".

It was more like a hobby, perhaps?

Don't ask me, ask racists like Obama, Pelosi & Reid and most members of the Democrat Party leadership. You know the ones that pass racist laws thus creating discrimination, redistribution of wealth, and other SINS against humanity. They would likely be better equipped to answer your question. Even a racist like you should be able to answer your own question.

Yeah, right, Pelosi was to blame for slavery. And Reid provided Bull Conners with police dogs and fire hoses.

Exactly why do we need to be encouraging immigration? Don't we have enough people? Enough people for what? And if we don't have enough now, how many would be enough? And if we do need more people, what kind of people do we need? Shouldn't we ask who would make the best additions? Are low-end day laborers who jumped the border the best choices for new citizens?
I speak of civil, social man under law, and no other.

I'm not sure how the bill encourages immigration. But the current bill as written is open ended, so if the bill specified that only those eligible must meet the requirements at the time of passage or would meet the requirements within 4 years, which means they are within the borders now, would that make it more palatable?
