to those who voted yes, we have a Constitution and no one man should have the power to make laws, our Congress has a job and he just ignores "we the people" with executive orders

The President is supposed to make "sense" - he's supposed to enforce the law. His "order" violates lawfully created legislation, and rewards people who are here illegally. If this were Iran, and people were found to be here unlawfully, they would be imprisoned for years immediately.

Are you going to advocate reducing legal immigration?

How can we keep on taking more than a million legal permanent residents in every year?

Most of those admitted do not have any special jobs skills. They are relatives of prior immigrants, many of whom have little education and do not speak much English.

Where is the give and take?

Or do you think that America can continue to be the same country with little job creation but a soaring population that is expected to grow from 310 million today to 400 million around 2050, with almost all this growth due to recent immigration?

And how about the next 100 million after that?

Has anybody's American Dream included an America of half a billion people? I don't think so.
