Calif. Measure Would Target Illegal Immigrants
http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=106658642

He's behind an initiative to deny benefits to children of illegal immigrants who are born in the U.S.
Needs to go back and re-read the Constitution with regard to who is a U.S. citizen. Also needs to do a little more research, apparently, on how other countries handle this issue.

It was great to actually hear an interviewer challenge this guys assumptions for a change. Happens all too infrequently, even on NPR, I'm sorry to say.

1. I heard that interview on my way home tonight.
She tried to challenge him, but he was just stupid. I can't see his Prop going anywhere, but you never know. So many people out there want to blame everything on illegal immigration.

2. I was driving home, too.
And really cheering her on. So many times, the interviewee just gets asked questions and they let too much of this crap fly by. But you could really hear the frustration in her voice. She clearly thought he was stupid, too.

I hope it goes absolutely nowhere, too. :hi:
