The other 30%

70% of Americans support Arizona’s illegal immigration legislation.

 

How about the other 30%?

 

What are the major sub-categories of this 30%?  I suggest these six groups?

1)     We need to do a better job at our borders but we need to leave the state and federal identification system alone.

2)     We need to enforce our borders but we also need to improve our state and federal identification system.

3)     We need to allow anyone into the US.

4)     We can’t allow everyone into the US but we need far more new immigrants so we should leave the existing system alone.

5)     We need to keep the situation "as is".  These illegal immigrants provide a valuable and cheap labor pool for America.

6)     We need to keep the situation "as is".  These illegal immigrants are future voters and they are far more likely to vote with the left than the right.

 

Unfortunately the 30% tend to be lumped together.  But my guess is that there are radically different views within this 30%.  What sub-groups am I missing?  If you are one of the 30% how do you describe your position?
