If you listen to some of the cable show hosts. they say: Send them home. Deport 12 million people. That is totally unrealistic. Physically. it could not be achieved. If it could be. it would be an expense far greater than anyone could imagine for this country. What we have to do is have realistic. tough. fair answers. Here is what we have come up with. If you are here. having overstayed a visa. or without documentation. in the United States. we will give you a chance. a chance to become legal. But it is a long. hard road. It will take you 11 yearsil years--of your life.
