Immigration

McCain’s attack on Bush’s failures might yet transcend Romney’s attempt to be the Change Guy. But the immigration bottom line seems to me straightforward enough:

(1) Stop illegal immigration cold.

(2) Make those illegals who want to be citizens citizens. As fast as possible.

(3) Insist that everyone working in the US should be a citizen. Sorry, free marketeers. This is important.
