As a Republican candidate running for president, Trump thinks the immigrants are rapists, criminals, and drug dealers. Trump is bias towards the immigrants because he anticipates that the immigrants commit the majority of the crime and violence in America. From a moral standpoint, I believe Trumps immigration plan is unfair because it asserts certain groups of people to be different than the others. Although I am a U.S. citizen, my parents came from a different country. Consequently, Trump 's plan will deport my family, and my friends, and possibly your family and friends too.…

Trump believes that illegal immigration is destroying U.S. taxpayers, and he believes that neither Republicans nor Democrats are helping the situation. Republicans don’t do anything about illegal immigration because some of their business supporters want cheap labor. Democrats look at illegal immigrants as potential Democratic voters (135-136). Both Democrats and Republicans may have their reasons for illegal immigrants to stay, but Donald Trump thinks that the parties need to put America’s interests first and that illegal immigrants need to return from whence they came. Trump then continues to discuss that illegal immigrants are by definition, lawbreakers, and refers to them as “illegal aliens” due to the fact that illegal immigrants are often members or violent gangs.…

One of the hottest topics in politics is immigration and more importantly immigration through illegal means. It seems after careful consideration one may suggest that the people come to this great nation, known as the United States and a land of opportunity, not meaning to break its laws, but instead searching to escape poverty and hardships that they face in their home nation. Furthermore, in analyzing two articles on the subject, "Imagining the Immigrant: Why Legality Must Give Way to Humanity” by John J. Savant, a writing professor at Dominican University of California and writer of philosophy, ethics, and morality, and "The Perpetual Border Battle" by Mark Krikorian, a nationally recognized expert on immigration issues, we find the true motive behind these so called "aliens" and what we should do about it. While both speak on the subject and why so many people are flooding to the U.S., Savant speaks mostly on the morality of the people coming over illegally and is suggesting changing laws to better help them make there stay legal and Kirkorian is mostly describing the number flow of the people and how to turn them around.…
Pragmatic Approach to Texas's Immigration Introduction The Wall Street Journal's article Texas's Immigration Choices illustrates their agreement and support for Texas's Governor Rick Perry and his position on immigration and border state control.

Approach of Practicality In the issue of immigration, the author points out that additional security measures such as more fences or barriers will not solve the issue of illegal immigration.…

Rhetorical Analysis Doug Laforest wrote an article about how it is not socially acceptable to use any other phrase for an immigrant that has illegally traveled to the United States to claim residency should be referred to as an “Undocumented Immigrant”. When analyzing the article Doug writes, “Undocumented Immigrants”, there were many rhetorical devices used to get the point across effectively. Through the course of the article not only does the author use many effective strategies but the people he quotes also bring great devices to the table. The first thing that is written is “Language is Power”, which will come to play role later on in the paper. Jumping right into the reading right after that though Doug introduces us to a friend that…
