Immigration
Immigration has become a growing concern in the US for amny reasons, for one many illegal immigrants have been commiting various crimes, some miniscule but others very harmful. They ahve also been taking over jobs because they will do hard labor for less, this concers the popeles who's jobs are being lost.

With legal immigrants he will do everything he can to help them transition into the country more smoothly such as developing programs to help them more easily learn english.

John McCain believes the the cause of the Iraq war was just and the war itself is nessisary, acheivable, and noble, and he is okay with the American presence in Iraq for 100 years. He voted against a plan for Iraq because it has a times table, he says it is a white flag for surrender. With all that he has said it is very clear that McCain is in full support of the war and does not plan to end it any time soon. Unless it becomes unessisary and no longer worth the loss of money and lives.

Do you know that we've laid a $10 trillion debt on young Americans, $500 billion of it we owe to China? We've got to have a package of reforms and it has got to lead to reform prosperity and peace in the world. And I think that this problem has become so severe, that we're going to have to do something about home values." McCAin also says that Americans are innocent victims of wallstreet greed. He has vetoed all pork-barrel bills and announce pork spenders. In doing this it will help rid Amerivca of the problems they ahve been causing.
