the presidential candidates on immigration

As congress debates on comprehensive immigration bill the presidential candidates are also trying to play importance roles upon that bill. Cod is one of the candidates. He said that he will accept the basic idea of border security and we need to get corporation with Mexico for this. And we should put more meaningful penalties on a business owner who hires illeger immigrants or undocumented people. however, he is not convinced in raising minimum wages and doing other thing than immigration bill. For example, he question on pathway to citizenship and growing population. He is interested in workers program and agricultural cases.

I basically agree with his opinion about the immigration bill. Forming corporation with Mexico is a good idea to solve immigrant problem. But in the other hand, he should concern about the other issues as well as the presidential candidate. This his speech is released on May 3. He should show more his thoughts about the politic.

I too agree on his opinion on the immigration bill. Our immigration problem needs to be solved right away.

I agree with KK. The immigration issue should be regarded with attention. However, he does need to focus on other issues because a lot of people are on very different sides of the immigration problem. I think his immigration concern will only bring in a limited number of advocates.

I agree partially with his ideas about the immigration bill. Why is he not concerned with raising minimum wages? I have recently watched this video about people living on minimum wages, and I have learned that it is almost impossible for someone to live on a minimum wage.

I think that taking action for immigration should be a long time ago but I am glad that somebody is solving the problem.
