Host are there specific things about these ads that you remember that resonated with you . Ads thatome of the talk about our security and the dangers this country will face , they are really important for me. The country is going to a direction that i cannot really understand.

Jobrelated, security, holding down illegal immigrants. Is out of context a lot of times by people when they say he wants to stop everyone. He really wants to screen carefully. These people are vile. Y go over there and they host let me ask you this. Our political ads in place for a candidate to give his or her being from the own point of view as opposed to taken from the point of view of a particular newspaper or tv station .

We have our own people out of work. Our own people that are suffering. There is no more middleclass. There is only the working poor. We are trying to do things with two or three jobs.

Host elizabeth is calling from wilmette, illinois. You are swayed by these ads. Tell us which kind of answer most persuasive to you.

As a puerto rican you were born an american citizen, which a lot of people dont know. They ask if i need a passport to go here or there.
