Can Democrats Find Their Way on Immigration?

@jeffjarvis they kinda do. Regardless of how nasty the Republicans are on this, the public is more on their side.

Democrats need to work on making their points more clear, making sure their stance is understood by everyone.

Their position should be more popular, but it isn’t because they aren’t and they’re not good telling people their ideas clearly

Everyone knows the Republican stance on immigration, how many people can tell you the Democrats position on it?
