So no offense but that argument is moot.

It amazes me when some people have the inability to reason. If he left Mexico at 9 years old, most likely he does not even know where his home was and that is if he has a home. Second, if his family is here, to whom does he return to? He would be alone and left to fend for himself.

Maybe someone else DREAMING. Last time I checked children of illegal immigrants were also citizens. Whether anchor, by default or what ever you want to call it...still citizens. Wake up!

EVERY American should carry this # with them every where they go..when you see a hot house or drop house, a house that is housing many illegals and you should assume they "are" illegal, then call
ICE..if you see more than a couple working anywhere, mcdonalds or in the farms or just anywhere.. A great chance they are illegal.. Their are very few becoming legal citizens.. they get more from our government by staying illegal..

ICE 1-866-347-2423

You mean, whenever you see a Mexican right? And then they say this is not a racist... You cannot tell if someone is documented or not by simply looking at them? You are racially profiling.

yes mexican.. absolutely.. Even the mexicans don't like the illegals if they are citizens.. i am italian and others are something else.. but when you have over 40 million illegal mexicans in this country, the chances are great they are illegal.. I am not racially profiling anyone.. These are facts.. and no, i am not racist.. so make sure you call ICE 1-866-347-2423 when you see a group of mexicans.. If they are legal, they surely won't mind showing their paperwork, right?

How long ago were Blacks even allowed on most college campuses? Not that long, maybe 40-50 years. When your parents didn't go to college, it's a lot less likely you will, especially if you grow up poor (like the majority of minorities in this country) and live in a community where more kids drop out of HS and go to jail than finish and go to college. White people have no excuses...we have no discrimination getting in our way, and if we work hard and do well in school, we are rewarded for it. I got scholarship offers just like my black best friend did, and just like the girl from Mexico city did.

Crying and complaining that white people have to actually work for things now is simply pathetic. By saying Juan doesn't deserve to be at Harvard is also discrediting all those white people he beat out in HS for the Valedictorian. And there are "white" groups that support you anyways. If you know your nationality, there's a scholarship fund for it. If not, there are plenty of fellowships that ignore race. And there's always merit and need based scholarships, especially at Harvard and other private schools.

amazing how quick people forget.. Juan, if he is illegal, he absolutely doesn't need to be there.. Absolutely.. and your quote about Americans isn't correct.. those days are long gone.. negro's are allowed anywhere as it should be.. but yet they have the negro college fund, the naacp, sharpton and Wright and racist groups.. but if we open a white college fund and preach the "racist blacks" .. we are freakin' doomed and racist.. this crap has to stop.. between both parties.. whites and blacks seem to forget that whites were slaves also and held slaves by black men.. You did know that right? but Juan, if he is here illegally like over 40 million are, no way should he go..the odds are great that he and his parents are living off taxpayer dollars to great extent.. they would rather stay illegal then become citizens because they absolutely hate paying taxes..

Now your hate is against Blacks? First of all there was a time when you could bring a servant to America and after they had served their time, which was I believe 7 years, you were now free. Many continued this cycle regardless of color. This is how some Blacks were able ti have servants, until someone decided to enslave Blacks for ever and their off springs too.

Your telling me that his parents never told him of his homeland? and who cares who is here, they are here illegally, also at 18 i went to college on my own, didnt have mommy and daddies hand to hold. please dont feed me the he has to fend for himself thing. all of us at one point in time have to stand on our own two feet. and you also say that if he is illegal. he is, read the link.

No offense, but your argument is not grounded in reality one bit.

it is grounded in reality black. at 18 i had to leave mommy and daddies home to step out on my own. he isnt some child anymore. all of us at some point have to stand on our own two feet. i did, others have. at 18 i was off to college on my own. why is he any different?
