Echoing the above and adding that liberal assimilation is destroying the everything and at its core is the greatest evil in existence. Literally very close to Nazi Germany on my list. America needs more immigration and less assimilation if we truly want to Make America Great Again
Just another reason why white people are the worst
The bolded is one of the unfortunate casualties from this year's Republican Primary: the idea that anything short of rounding up every illegal alien and deporting them immediately makes you a pawn for either the Democrats or "The Establishment" has taken root. There used to be a place within the GOP, probably a majority opinion even, that some form of amnesty is a necessity and that immigration is, in general, a good thing. Now the vast primordial roar of the Trump campaign has made it appear as though there is no longer a place for such views on humanity.
Just to be clear, you are saying my view should still exist but has gone extinct, correct? (Not that you necessarily endorse it.) I fully endorse amnesty obviously, but I don't have any stupid assimilation requirements like "must learn English" if you want to stay.
Yes. My post above was saying the view you expressed should exist. I wouldn't go so far as to say it has gone extinct so much as gone unrepresented in the current cycle, unless you count the Moderate Hero campaign of John Kasich.
Having said that, I will go a step further. I support an amnesty program for the current batch of illegals. I think a legal requirement to speak English would be silly, though I think public schools should teach students English if they don't know it and government agencies should not be required to have foreign language translations. If you choose to speak only Latin to your family and business contacts that's your business. I don't think all cultural distinction need be erased. In fact, I want to preserve most if possible.
I am, and always have been, a pro-immigration Roman Catholicism Republican.
