My my. Who said they would not need to go though a process to obtain
citizenship?

The issue really seems to be the limit on the number or and time
allowed for non-citizens to remain in the US. Many I am sure, do not wish
to become citizens. Many do.

One of the problems is so much mis-information. Amnesty? Send them all
home? Work permits? Free ride? Jail?
