Really I think this illegal immigrant issue will never be addressed as it needs to be. All we are seeing is a few half hearted scraps thrown out to make it look good. Politicians know they are cutting their own life line by aggressively speaking out against illegals.
I think the article in todays paper sums it up pretty well.
"Hispanic voters voice support for Democratic presidential candidates"
"Mayorga said her favorite presidential candidate is Illinois Sen. Barack Obama."
"Because I guess, due to his African American roots, he can understand well the Latino community concerns," she said.
So she will vote for him because he's black, and she thinks because he's black, he will better serve the Hispanics. OK, perfect example as to why America is screwed up. Now that Hispanic numbers influence the elections, no sane politician is about to turn their vote against them.

I wonder why our leaders won't enact what their voters ask for?

They are, it's just that voter demographics has changed.
We're screwed and tattooed.
