So we have countless men crossing the boarder with no belongings and no homes and no jobs. Why don't we create a program where illegal immigrant men and women sign up to a course to learn English after which they are put into the Military for service and only at the end of that service do they earn US citizenship. This would help the military with needed numbers and it would help assimilate immigrants into American values. If the Immigrant doesnt want this path we can deport them back to their country.

When I have met many Americans who are proud of their (for example) Polish or Italian ancestry. If I were one of those I would feel pretty insulted that my heritage was somehow inferior to immigrants from England.
In 1776, English was the universal language of the colonists and has remained so in 98 percent of the country.
