For those of you who are pro-illegal immigration, do you think illegal immigrants should be able to run for the House, Senate and even the presidency?

[BaileyWillow]

And please don't talk about laws or the Constitution. We all know those no longer matter.

[GreekLorrd]

In order to run for the House of Representatives or the Senate, a candidate must meet the constitutional requirements outlined in Article I, Section 2 and Article I, Section 3 of the United States Constitution. These requirements include being a U. S. citizen for at least seven years, being at least 25 years old (for the House) or 30 years old (for the Senate), and being a resident of the state in which they are running.

Similarly, in order to run for the presidency, a candidate must meet the constitutional requirements outlined in Article II, Section 1 of the United States Constitution. These requirements include being a natural-born U. S. citizen, being at least 35 years old, and having been a resident of the United States for at least 14 years.

It's important to note that these requirements apply to all candidates, regardless of their immigration status. While there may be different opinions on immigration policy and the treatment of undocumented immigrants, the constitutional requirements for running for public office in the United States are clear and apply equally to all potential candidates.

Illegal immigrants are hard working and humble and are just as valuable as native and legitimate permanent residents, the reason they are shunned is because the government should have the legal power to choose who is allowed in their country. The reason Canada and England and America is better than a third world country is that we are allowed to reject people who do not meet the objectives of our country as citizens in our country. They are not bad people but they should not be given citizenship unless they do it legally.

[BaileyWillow]

I agree. If you enter the country illegally you can never be a citizen.

[DizzyDesii]

Im not for nor against it but I’m sure once they become a citizen they can

[ImalwaysrightOK]

I'm sure those people would love to replace the current American citizens they view as undesirable with a fresh load of poor, uneducated who vote for Democrats.

[BaileyWillow]

That's their goal.

[Avicenna]

The idiots who want open borders would love to have illegals in high political office

[BaileyWillow]

I just thought the idea was really funny. Biden allows him 5 million illegals in, and then one of them becomes president. 😂😂

[Nikki1989]

They need to become a citizen first.

[BaileyWillow]

Are you saying that as your personal opinion or the law?

[exitseven]

If democrats can get a super majority in the legislature they can pass a constitutional amendment and allow anybody with a pulse to become a US citizen. This is what they are trying to do.

[LiamJHayden]

@exitseven No need for an amendment. Naturalization belongs to Congress, so if a bill to naturalize all illegals passed the House and Senate and was signed by the President, they could immediately make all of the millions of illegals citizens.

[exitseven]

@LiamJHayden This would be the end of America.

[BaileyWillow]

@LiamJHayden

Fellas, with all due respect, my question isn't about the law or constitution. Where in the law does it say we should fly illegals around the country under the cover of darkness, and house them? And sometimes house them in 5 star hotels? And why are the Dems hell-bent on not having voter ID?
And why did Biden get rid of the wait in Mexico policy?

Also, my question isn't about making them citizens. Why would they need to be? If we are no longer a nation of laws, then why do we even talk about laws. Bragg lets killers go, but goes after Trump. Biden says he's going to use taxpayer money to pay off private school loans. (that's not legal)
Biden said you don't have to pay your rent, but landlords still have to make mortgage payments. (that's not legal)
That's why I stated that I don't want the constitution or the law to come into this thought experiment. We've come to a time when the Biden crime family can do whatever they want, but Trump can't pay off a porn star.

Not ONE person has been able to answer my question. If you're OK with a person entering the country illegally, and taking a job illegally, why can't they take Biden's job? You would be hard pressed to find any human on the planet that couldn't hide in the basement, eat ice cream, and mumble in front of a mic.

[exitseven]

Okay- democrats are importing millions of illegal aliens and relocate them in Republican areas so they can change the electorate and win elections. They do not want voter ID because it would be harder to cheat. They used all these methods to steal the 2020 election and used all the chaos that covid created as a smokescreen and used the fake news press to give them cover.

[chicosuave]

what makes you think illegals have the right to join any government job? they can't even join Walmart. Also it looks like you dont even research the facts and you just go based on what other people are theorizing.

[BaileyWillow]

Did you read the question?

[ColHathi]

Who would be pro-illegal immigration? That doesn't make sense. Are you just twisting some words?

[BaileyWillow]

I just did an entire second post on this, because people were either playing dumb, or they really are just dumb. I can't post links, but I'll give you the exact title to search.

I used the term "pro-illegal immigrant" on various forums. People said NO one is pro-illegal immigrant. Do you agree?

Alright, I'll check it out.

[ColHathi]

I'm sorry, I'm struggling to find the post. It says it's too long, and when I cut part of it out or only search for "pro-illegal immigrant", nothing comes up.

[ColHathi]

Oh nevermind, I see it now. Just can't use the search function for it, I guess.

[BaileyWillow]

Yep, second row.

[ColHathi]

Gotcha. Responded there now.

[NostalgiaSenpi]

I hate illegals.
