Good point, the escrow period for future US citizens can most certainly be shortened, and the whole process could be made cheaper and more sensitive. In fact, our candidates positions are similar on immigration. Obama voted for the Senate immigration overhaul bill that McCain co-sponsored in 2006:
My point is, aside from the op’s original debate in this thread ongoing, there is subjective bashing of Obama occurring for spiteful, partisan reasons. I guarantee it would not be happening if our candidates’ party affiliations were masked, but again, the candidate most willing to cross the aisle and compromise will get my vote. We should all aspire to act diplomatically for the sake of our union, no time better than now. And I know my data-driven, fellow piggs can see the objectivity I’m trying to emphasize here.
