ILW ponders Obama Clinton McCain

The Immigration Lawyers Website just published their opinion of which one of
the presidential candidates is most likely to deliver "immigration benefits".
ILW didn't define what they mean by "immigration benefits", but it's safe to
assume they are talking about amnesty, large increases in guest worker visas,
F-4 and OPT for foreign students, H-1B, green cards, and anything else that
increases the volume of business and wealth of immigration lawyers.

It's a tough choice for ILW because all three candidates agree to the agenda
of comprehensive immigration reform, which includes H-1B visas.

The ILW winners are:

#1 McCain
#2 Obama
#3 Clinton

Fortunately for the ILW, and unfortunately for us, they get to choose the best
of the three instead of the least of three evils. Keep in mind that the ILW
choices have nothing to do with policy or ideology because all three of these
presidential candidates are globalists who want to destroy our country by
opening our borders to unlimited immigration (in WTO terms they want unimpeded
flows of "natural persons"). The ILW choice boils down to who is most likely
to get the dirty job done, not who has the most desire to do it.

In their opinion, McCain is the best option. That's an excellent choice based
on McCain's record. Two examples of McCain's open borders voting record was
his co-sponsorship of H-1B in 1990, and the McCain/Kennedy amnesty bill. To

Out of the two Democratic candidates, ILW thinks Obama is most likely to
deliver the goods. Their reason for picking Obama is that Clinton is so
polarizing the Republicans, and possibly some Democrats, will try to thwart
anything she does on immigration, or probably anything else -- even if it
means filibusters. Obama on the other hand might not have as many problems
with partisan politics, which means he may be able to push amnesty and open
immigration bills through Congress more rapidly than Clinton.

Obama Clinton McCain

The three major contenders for President this November are Senators Obama,
Clinton and McCain. Here is a quick preview of how immigration benefits might
fare under these three possible presidencies (bear in mind that immigration
legislation is controversial and generally difficult to muster votes for).

The analysis begins with the likely shape of Congress next year. Here, the
ground appears to favor Democrats. In the House of Representatives, the
Democratic majority will likely increase by the low single digits or decrease
by the high single digits. Either way, it appears that the Demcrats will keep
their majority in the House. In the Senate, Democrats appear poised to
increase their majority by 3 to 6 seats. Either way, the Democrats will likely
fall short of a filibuster proof majority, thus guaranteeing that on some
issues, the Republicans will be able to block bills. Thus the three possible
presidencies should be viewed within the context of Democratic majorities in
both the House and the Senate in the next Congress.

If Sen. Clinton were President, Senate passage of immigration benefits could
be problematic since a Republican filibuster against an initiative from a
President Clinton may be easier to sustain than against another Democrat. The
fundamental issue if either Democrat were to be elected President - Sen.
Clinton or Sen. Obama - is that immigration will likely not be high on the
list of Presidential priorities in the next Congress.
The Iraq war, health care, energy, the economy - all these might prevent any
Democratic presidential push on immigration. If Sen. McCain were President,
however, the list of Presidential priorities would be quite
different: war against Al-Qaeda, tax cuts, and spending cuts. A President
McCain may well want to work on immigration early on to show that he is a
centrist President and does not govern from one end of the political spectrum.
To sum up, from a purely immigration benefits perspective, an Obama presidency
would be better than a Clinton presidency, and a McCain presidency would
likely be the best option.
