MURFREESBORO, Tenn. (WMOT) -- You’ve no doubt heard about the tarmac confrontation yesterday between the president and the governor of Arizona. That heated exchange reportedly centering on illegal immigration.
Immigration issues have figured prominently as well in the Republican presidential primary.
But Dr. Andrei Korobkov, a professor of political science at Middle Tennessee State University, says the current national debate ignores immigration realities on the ground.
Korobkov notes there’s currently 11 to 12 million illegal immigrants living in the U.S., far too many deport. To complicate matters further, millions of them have given birth to children who are now U.S. citizens.
