A recent article published in the Observer stated that Dole will not support illegal immigrants receiving amnesty. I am happy she is going to listen to the great majority of Americans that agree with this.

All the phone calls and faxes trying to influence senate votes, the real question isnt who sends the most but who sends them. A phone call of fax from an ilegal resident in the US should be completely ignored. Senators serve Americas, they are emplyed by Americans to represent our wants and needs, they do not and should never have their vote influenced by non Americans.

Americans that want amnesty are entitled to their opinion, because that is the essence of being an American, but illegals and their advocates that try to influence US laws have no voice in the affairs that belong solely to Americans.

In this article you see that Richard Burr may vote for illegals getting amnesty because his job is safe until 2010. If he supports this bill he will be looking for when when that time comes. We and many others will not forget his vote and will make it an issue when the time to remove him comes.

“A recent statewide poll found that 56 percent of North Carolinians believe undocumented Latino immigrants are a “burden.” In North Carolina, 65 percent of residents also consider the immigration issue “very important” to them, according to an April statewide poll by Elon University.

“North Carolinians don’t have a favorable opinion of undocumented immigrants,” said poll director Hunter Bacot.

Such views could bode well politically for Dole, he said. She faces re-election next year, making her position on the bill a campaign issue. Burr isn’t up for re-election until 2010.

“It’s probably going to be a good issue for her to run on,” Bacot said. “The numbers show that people in North Carolina aren’t really happy with the situation.”

Rothenberg, the political analyst, said Burr and Dole must look at the immigration issue both philosophically — as befits their role as public servants — and politically.

“I don’t think anyone thinks Richard Burr is a squish,” Rothenberg said. “Elizabeth Dole, it’s more of a question. She’s in more of a squeeze because [her re-election] is coming up more quickly.”

Although Burr isn’t talking publicly, a look at his votes so far gives some indication on his thoughts.

The pro-business senator voted Monday to proceed with debate on the whole immigration reform deal — a procedural vote that Dole opposed — indicated his willingness to have a discussion.

But Burr, along with Dole, supported an amendment Wednesday afternoon that would slash the number of guest workers allowed in each year.”

People vote their resentment, not their appreciation. The average man does not vote for anything, but against something…
