SECOND CLASS CITIZENS?

THEY NOW CAN GET LOANS, DRIVER'S LICENSES, INSURANCE, CHECKING ACCOUNTS AND CREDIT CARDS, BUT THEY ARE NOT CITIZENS. NEITHER ARE THEY GOING AWAY. YET THEY ARE OUR NEXT, BEST HOPE IF IN THE FUTURE, AMERICA MUST GO TO WAR. WHY? THE HISTORIAN VICTOR DAVIS HANSON SAID THAT "CITIZENS ARE HISTORY'S DEADLIEST KILLERS," BY WHICH HE MEANS THAT CITIZENS FIGHT LIKE HELL TO PRESERVE THEIR PERSONAL FREEDOMS. MR. HANSON OFTEN USES THE PHRASE, CIVIC MILITARISM. SO TO SOLVE THE DEBATE ABOUT MILLIONS OF ILLEGALS ALREADY IN THE UNITED STATES, WORKING, SPENDING MONEY AND SETTING UP FAMILIES - WE NEED TO NOT ONLY EXTEND CITIZENSHIP, BUT ALSO EXPECT THEM TO FULFILL THEIR OBLIGATIONS AS CITIZENS.

YOUR THOUGHTS? WHAT QUOTA DOES AMERICA SET FOR IMMIGRANTS? WOULD A FORMER GENERATION OF (ONCE ILLEGAL) CITIZENS FIGHT TO KEEP A LATTER GENERATION OF ILLEGALS OUT?
