Correctomundo! Did you know that 21% of Dreamers are high school dropouts? And that only 22% are college graduates, compared to 32% of Americans? Let's not paint these Dreamers are such an unusually successful group. It's false, and only meant to advance the liberal narrative.

True, but can we please distinguish between DACA and "Dreamers"? They are NOT the same and NOT interchangeable terms.[/quote]

Dreamers were all born elsewhere and brought illegally into the U.S. as minors. A new study estimated that there may be 3.6m Dreamers.
DACA are a subset of Dreamers, born in certain years and brought into the U.S. in a certain period. There are 800K DACA recipients. Older Dreamers are not eligible for DACA.

This is stupid.  There are no Dreamers.  There never was a Dream Act, so how does anybody know who they might have been.  DACA is deferred action/prosecutorial discretion implemented by DHS, they could expand or contract it anyway they want.  A path to citizenship can only be passed by Congress, which is why DACA was only a temporary fix.[/quote]

You're in sad, bitter 15% minority of the country. Why don't you stop stewing in rage and do something productive?

[quote]A majority of voters, 58 percent, think these undocumented immigrants, also known as Dreamers, should be allowed to stay and become citizens if they meet certain requirements — a sentiment that goes well beyond the existing DACA program. Another 18 percent think they should be allowed to stay and become legal residents, but not citizens. Only 15 percent think they should be removed or deported from the country.
