But my view is that you need a system at the border. You need some fencing but you need technology. You need boots on the ground. And then you need to have interior enforcement of our nation's immigration laws inside the country. And that means dealing with the employers who still consistently hire illegal labor.

there are no borders
to the kingdom of humanity...
no flags, no troops to protect...

Finally, in my critique of the immigration image of America, it is also important to know that we're not only a nation of immigrants, but we are in some part a nation of emigrants, which often gets neglected.

The Hungry Immigrants are not Bad
The illegal
immigrants across the borders
aren't bad; but the political party
which let them in to outnumber the natives
and terrorise.

To see the world as whole
The whites in America were once
Illegal immigrants from Europe.
The whites in other than Europe
Were illegal immigrants.
Intrusions are due to boundaries drawn;
Illegalities are due to legalities framed.
