Message: Entry: Decoding the Iowa Poll Link: http://www.takimag.com/site/article/decoding_the_iowa_poll#3381 Post contents: I disagree with many points of Ron Paul's position on immigration, but it is not a deal breaker for me. It is not a life or death issue, but a quality of life issue. I have lived most of my life surrounded by immigrants and they have added a great deal to the quality of my life. Probably a majority of my friends are immigrants. I agree with Dr. Paul on the need for visa control and border control. It's not desirable to let anyone who wants to just walk into the country without any background check or even the possibility of a background check. Apart from that, however, the US needs more immigration and we are very fortunate it is coming from Catholic countries for the most part. And birthright citizenship needs to be maintained to provide a continuous long range solution to illegal immigration as long as the country is too divided to agree to a short range solution.
