Highly unlikely. The percentage of immigrants running for any office is minute. Usually immigrants will not engage in any kind of political activity and conecentrate on fitting in, adapting and overcoming obstacles.
I do oppose the "flock over" statement as I am one that "flocked over". Please do not throw legal immigrants into the same pot as illegals. It is a humangous difference. I have not broken any laws and have done everything by the book for years and suffered through the inability, lack of manpower in the immigration departmetn or Bush's policies.

Yeah I must say, I was very saddened to see him not run, I believe if he had run he would have been the first Black President, opening the door for other strong black candidates to run. But he sold out and went to work for Bush, It's sad to see how the Bush Administration is playing him and Ms Rice like Puppets on a String, get some minorities in key positions and make em look bad, make em take the blame for your mistake.

Powel and Rice both have had and have everyday the opportunity not to continue to lie to the people so they are not the integer persons you think they are. They may get played, but both will make out like a fox in a chicken coop and that is what they are ultimately after.

Immigrants fall under the minority as well, believe it or not.

You don't say! I haven't noticed! Maybe the first time trying to buy a pack of cigarettes with my German ID card and being told that I won't get served because I am a damn foreigner would have been a good indication of me being a minority.... LOL here are asian americans and african americans thinking they are the only ones that get discriminated against ROFL!
