Thus US Immigration Agency releases a report that they have the biggest backlog of applications for citizenship that they have ever experienced.

n July and August alone, the federal Citizenship and Immigration Services agency received 2.5 million applications, including petitions for naturalization as well as for the entire range of immigrant visas. That was more than double the total applications it received in the same two months in 2006, said a spokesman, Bill Wright.

This backlog is evident that the US is still a place where people want to come for lower wages and better living conditions, and that our appearance and public perception has not been severely negatively impacted by the actions of the Bush administration.

Also, most of these new citizens are Latin Americans, and who will this demographic be voting for in the next election? are a large part of the 20, in the 40-40-20 electorate?
