Vice President Joe Biden spoke Thursday to an audience at the U.S. Hispanic Chamber of Commerce’s 2014 Legislative Summit. The estimated 11 million illegal aliens in the United States “are already Americans,” he said.
But not really. After all, It’s Obama who has the pen and the phone; everybody realizes that not everything Biden says has the potential to suddenly become law. Immigrants without legal permission to be in the United States are actually committing a crime and the Vice President can’t unilaterally change that.
“Eleven million people living in the shadows I believed are already American citizens,” Biden said. “These people are just waiting, waiting for a chance to be able to contribute fully, and by that standard, 11 million undocumented aliens are already Americans in my view.”Biden referenced former President Theodore Roosevelt’s 1894 speech titled “True Americanism.”
“Teddy Roosevelt said it better. He said, Americanism is not a question of birthplace or creed or a line of descent. It’s a question of principles, idealism and character,” Biden said.
Biden compared illegal immigrants to immigrants who legally entered the United States, saying it took “a lot of courage” to pick up and go to America where they don’t speak the language and no one seems to want them.
“It takes a whole hell of a lot of courage to be sitting at a wooden kitchen somewhere anywhere in the world and say, you know, I tell you what kids. Let’s all pick up and go to America where we don’t speak the language, where they don’t seem to want us, where it’s gonna be really, really rough to get there, but let’s go. Won’t that be fun?” Biden said.
“All they want—they just want a decent life for their kids, a chance to contribute to a free society, a chance to put down roots and help build the next great American century. I really believe that. That’s what they’re fighting for,” Biden added.

It is time to get rid of him let them move in with him and let him take care of them
We have important business to deal with here in the US so we don’t need to keep WASTING OUR TIME, MONEY AND RESOURCES ON ILLEGAL ALIENS!!!!! Arrest and deport these leaches! Seize and sell EVERYTHING they “OWN”(?) and put that money into Veteran’s programs and Social Security for REAL AMERICANS! OUR BORDERS ARE CLOSED AND SO SHOULD ANY DISCUSSION OF LETTING THESE LEACHES IN, STAY OR HAVE ANYTHING IN OUR COUNTRY!!!
Biden is a thug for the Banksters. They want to collapse the U.S. economy and dissolve the borders between Canada and Mexico. Finally they will go the the North American Dollar. He’s a thug for the Rothschilds, Rockefellers, & etc.
Send the illegals back home, sling them over the fence, like they came in here.
Way to go Joe….showing your ignorance. If you kept your mouth shut people wouldn’t know how stupid you are.
joe biuden i would love to remove you equally as much as Barack Obama
hang him and deport all illegals
Biden has no idea what he’s saying or doing. He’s a “Yes man” to Obama, has no brains of his own!
They are ALREADY registered Democrats, as are MOST freeloaders.
What do expect from that Jackass
