GOP Presidential Candidates & Immigration

A recent article from AP analyzes the immigration position of Presidential hopefuls from Giuliani to Tancredo. Get the dirt on what they think about immigration reform. (If you didn't know already!)

On another immigration topic, a slue of polls have recently come out showcasing American's attitudes toward immigrants and the dysfunctional legal system called immigration law. The polls leave anyone confused and sure to be used by opposite sides to make their case.

One article - Immigration Issues Nag at GOP Candidates, demonstrates support for a bath to citizenship for illegal immigrants:
An overwhelming 77 to 21 percent, a CNN/Opinion Research Corp., poll this month found that people supported letting illegal immigrants living in the United States for several years to remain and apply for U.S. citizenship if they have a job and pay back taxes.
While another poll released today by UPI show a stricter view on immigrants: ( UPI: Enforce Immigration Laws)
Nearly 60 percent of UPI-Zogby International poll participants said enforcement of current U.S. laws is the best way to fight illegal immigration.
and the immigration debate continues.....
