There's a lot out there today once again telling us to get soooo excited because Barack Obama will just BE the next President, many GOP sighing "eh, well then we either give up now or copy Obama ala Bush-Gore 2000", amnesty IS a done deal, more zillions of no-income immigrants IS the only USA future, USA residents of all races already will just be doing "God's penance for their sinfulness" per Roman Catholics et al, on and on it goes.
 
I can't imagine, though, that ALL candidates are going to sidestep the treatment of ALL people in the Western Hemishpere as or in the nature of nationalized human capital such precepts and slogans require...and how except for those not yet here to hide the fact farms and businesses and jobs shrink overall as cheaply made housing proliferates; food costs are high and food standards ever-lowering mainly due to stamps and fact we have to import most of the stuff, in a way like oil that's almost "No problemo, jeffe de El Norte...Mexico or Venezuela will just raise prices, cripple your peeps, and all will trade everything just to beg you for bread...SOUNDS like Marxism or whatever, but hey...it's the co-mutually managed national economy of the Western Hemisphere as one together, and who wants to upset the sweet security for our officials' and their rarafied few business orthodoxy friends, no?".
 
The way it currently sounds in PSA land, Conservatives say we need trade as stimulus, Pelosi and her side we WILL have mass ongoing immigration into government subsidized or owned homes and society, it looks like there's a choice, but actually at best we're do to BOTH and still have a chance at trade or job stimulus, Iraq, the price of tea in China, and all else including marrying gays being wholly irrelevant to the base of economics from which all society will flow.
 
In the interest of letting trade and agricultural possibilities flourish in the USA, I favor Conservatives generally as they don't agree joining a managed economy such as Mexico and Latin America have had for at least 100 years will do much to reduce the factors outside the USA bolstering static economies, or do more than expand its lifestylings of uber-wealthy and say-so powerful elites being the only folks besides serfs hanging around...ala FA Hayek's admonitions.
 
In re amnesty, both as a USA national and Conservative, looking at the currency of the situation I would be comfortable accepting that all immigrants here in a non-subsidized capacity be made USA citizens with requirement that prior citizenship(s) be renounced; that  any immigrant naturalized or not who runs out on mortgages or any credit forfeits the property to government here even if a bank made the loan, to discourage predatory use of property within communities as well as against poor people; that for a period of 5-10 years the USA issue only student and limited visitor visas, putting a hold on h1b until such time as it appears such work rerealistically exists and cannot be met from the diverse populations already present; that anyone without documentation be given emergency medical care as naturally seems a true emergency, a life-threatening situation, then transported to nation of origin, so dictators and bad economics folks abroad can't exist by throwing surpluses to us and dragging down all here while watering down political resistances they face, or using 287g to "clear brush"; and that the Federal government subject to reports to the full Congress track for 5-10 years all Federal funds received by States and Cities to ensure same are spent on what they're sent for.
 
I respectfully submit these thoughts as I'm sure nobody in this election wants to use an Eleanor Roosevelt-like oversimplification of facts re the economy, military even unused for diplomatic credibility, needs of people living abroad, what is God's will and what's His penance even if it's more like arbitrarily separating goats and sheep in terms of who is worthy of social existence, is a border fence to keep people out or to keep 287g's from escaping rendition clutches, and how just trusting Laden, Iran, Hamas, Chavez, ad infinitum will "keep the USA safe in a win-win scenario" involving less commerce then for um, er going green in such nobility......DO they?
