You make a good point and it's a point that has a great deal of support. But
consider...

The illegal alien is illegal because the government says he is. He can't
become a "legal" alien because of all the hoops, waiting time, quotas, and
bureacracy.

Frankly, he is the kind of immigrant we should be glad to have. He's
demonstrated he's not afraid to take risks, work hard, provide for his
family, and is generally quite law-abiding.

I don't have an answer to the immigration problems, but I do believe the
individual illegal alien is not the one at fault
