Building concentration camps for Hispanics isn't what I see as heading towards a better America. Neither is warrantless black bagging of people off of the streets. Just wait until ICE gets their budget up to $100M and the 10,000 new slots filled, giving the Executive his own security force that answers to him. I'm not sure having an American Gestapo is heading in the right direction either.
Nothing celebrates the ideals of the Founding Fathers more than the concentration of power into the executive. That's what July 4 is all about, isn't it? Madison, Jay, etc. were upset that they didn't have a king of their own?
