NEVER, NEVER Full Legal Citizenship

I disagree here. IMO, the ideal situation for immigrants in America is assimilation. . I think it is important for all permanent residents to feel like a part of America.

I hate the term "Path to Citizenship" We already have a path to citizenship. Let the Newbees get on that path.

I think the letter is consistent with what you are saying. I interpret "NEVER, NEVER Full Legal Citizenship" as no path to citizenship through DACA, yet allowing "PERMANENT RESIDENCY" for some. Those who want to "assimilate" can get on the path we already have.

I think you and the author agree. I agree. :)

If legal permanent residents feel like a part of America, there is a path to citizenship if they want it. However, these are two different processes.

"It is important for all permanent residents to feel like a part of America" before seeking citizenship.


When I see sentiments like this:

Do not urge me to leave you or turn back from following you; for where you go, I will go, and where you lodge, I will lodge. Your people shall be my people, and your God, my God. Where you die, I will die, and there I will be buried.

Then, they are ready.


Paraphrasing President Trump: We are all made by the same Creator. We all bleed the same red blood. We worship God, not government.
