(Video) SEIU V.P. Gives Reason For Immigration Reform: 8 MILLION NEW PROGRESSIVE VOTES

Amnesty for illegal immigrants is a big issue for progressives.They try to sell people that illegal immigration is a racial issue, that those of us who want to protect the US boarders are inspired by racism, simply trying to keep out Hispanics.

Cases such as the Hezbollah Mole in the CIA case (Nada Nadim Prouty) and the 19-year old Jordanian illegal alien arrested in September for trying to blow up a downtown Dallas office tower, are  both examples of why we need to protect our borders. The simple fact is that its more difficult to launch an terrorist attack when you can't get in the country.

What Progressives do not get (or care about) is that the opposition to amnesty is not driven by anti-Hispanic or anti-Immigration prejudice, they are driven by anti-Illegal-immigration concerns. There, is the huge difference. The Motivation of the Progressives to support illegal immigration is much more nefarious. They are looking for illegal immigrants to grow and extend their political power.

Don't take my words as proof, take a look at the video below. At the "progressive" America's Future Now! conference in Washington, DC this past June, SEIU International Executive Vice President Eliseo Medina addressed attendees on the issue immigration reform. Mr. Medina gave the Progressives reason for amnesty, 8 million new progressive voters:

"..when they voted in November, they voted overwhelmingly for progressive candidates. Barack Obama got two out of every three voters that showed up"

So I think there's two things that matter for the progressive community.

Number one, if we are to expand this electorate to win, the progressive community needs to solidly be on the side of immigrants, that we'll expand and solidify the progressive coalition for the future..."

When you are in the middle of a fight for your life you will remember who was there with you. And immigrants count on progressives to be able to do that.

Number two.

We reform the immigration laws, it puts 12 million people on the path to citizenship and eventually voters. Can you imagine if we have, even the same ratio, two out of three?

If we have eight million new voters who care about ...... and will be voting. We will be creating a governing coalition for the long term, not just for an election cycle.

  1. Our Demand

    We, the American People
    American Patriots All
    Allegiance To Our Flag, in Accordance With Our Constitution,
    For Love Of Our Country, One Nation Under God
    are being portrayed as right-wing extremists,
    a lunatic fringe element, and astroturf
    we are everyday Americans
    We, are the American People

    In regards to this administration's lobbyist-generated
    back-room, closed-door, Healthcare Reform Bill,
    to say Americans are ANGRY is the
    "understatement of the year"

    Enough already

    Stop the insanity

    Keep your politics out of our Healthcare

    Healthcare reform done right utilizes the K.I.S.S. philosophy
    and first focuses on four primary cost factors
    Fraud, Tort, Billing, and Drug Prices

    Healthcare fraud is said to cost taxpayers
    hundreds of billions of dollars a year
    With an intelligent database
    there would not be this cost
    Only idiots would add trillions of dollars
    to a healthcare system that is leaking money like a sieve
    without fixing the system first

    Tort Insurance is quoted as between 4-6%
    of the overall Healthcare cost
    an estimated 120 Billion Dollars per year
    Seems quite logical that to reduce costs
    to take lawyers out of our healthcare

    Billing hassle is quoted as 8%
    of the overall Healthcare cost
    With an intelligent database
    there would not be this cost

    Drug Price Reform
    Americans demand the right
    to obtain our prescription drugs
    from the least expensive legitimate
    pharmaceutical source on the planet
    this is not subject to discussion

    E-Verifying recipients for unemployment benefits
    will save substantial amounts of money

    and E-Verifying Driver's License recipients
    will help secure our country

    and E-Verifying all workers will generate 8.3 million jobs
    currently held by known illegals

    all recipients, of any entitlement
    federal, or state
    must be E-Verified to eliminate most fraud
    and preferably Bio-ID'd to eliminate all fraud

    Need we remind Congress, and this administration
    that Entitlements cost taxpayers 50% of our Federal Budget

  2. Fraud in Entitlements alone
    costs Americans more, each year, than both wars
    and arguably, fraud costs Americans, more, in a single year
    than both wars, in total, over the last ten years

    FIX THE FRAUD FIRST before doing anything else
    and we'll save 1 Trillion Dollars a year
    actually even more

    in the meantime we will solicit
    the input of all healthcare workers,
    caring doctors, nurses, technicians,
    and maintenance workers, et al
    so they can tell us how to improve healthcare
    and reduce the cost
    in these very trying times
    that are very likely to last for far longer
    than any of us want them to.
    they will help save healthcare for us

    Do not disregard, We, the American People
    by continuing to act, deaf, dumb, and blind
    to the overwhelming consensus
    of the very people you profess to represent

    First Fix Fraud, Tort, Billing, and Drug Prices
    process the ideas of the healthcare people
    and we can have a one page bill
    for We, the American People
    sometime after we back away from the abyss
    and are back on our feet again.
    to say now is not the time
    is another of those
    "understatements of the year"

    Terrorists should always be
    the responsibility of our Military and our CIA
    Keep Gitmo open
    it's the perfect out of the way place
    to keep terrorists, who would do harm to our citizens,
    imprisoned by our military

    and last, but not at all least

    FREE OUR NAVY SEALS

    punishing our Seals for punching a known terrorist
    isn't any consolation for the deaths of innocent Americans
    and it doesn't at all present the image of who we Americans are
    Americans stand riveted behind our Military and our Intelligence Community
    they must be encouraged to keep us safe
    not deterred for petty offenses in the exercising of their duties
    Heaven forbid if we, Americans, ever got our hands on terrorists
    there would be no need for a trial

    A Contract Of, For, and With, Americans
    Patriots, it is our duty to educate all Americans
