This is what bothers me the most...MOST of the illegals are from Mexico and there is a lot of political action by Mexico and Latino activists here....this all gives mexicans an unfair advantage...not Latinos but mostly Mexicans.
I have a friend that came here legally from El Salvador. He had to pay a lot of money too and gets no benefits.
But this news item makes the point more. Why does it seem like immigration proponents aren't fighting hard for ALL immigrants? It seems unbalanced

FRESNO, Calif. — The valedictorian at Fresno's Bullard High School won't be attending college in the United States this fall because he's scheduled to be deported.
Arthur Mkoyan's 4.0 grade-point average qualified him to enter one of the state's top universities. But the 17-year-old and his mother have been ordered back to Armenia after their last appeal for asylum failed.
The family fled from what used to be part of the Soviet Union and has been seeking asylum since 1992.

That's messed up. A lot of Illegals from Mexico come here and their kids get a great education, score high grades and go on to college.
