The head of an immigration reform organization says it's a foregone conclusion that John McCain will not be president of the United States, and therefore running mate Sarah Palin will soon be able to really speak her mind about issues like illegal immigration.
Mark Krikorian is executive director of the Center for Immigration Studies and author of The New Case Against Immigration: Both Legal and Illegal. He has already made a prediction about the outcome of the election. 'I think McCain is not going to be president of the United States,' he contends. 'It's just the way it is.'
According to Krikorian, once Sarah Palin is free from the McCain campaign, she will be able to speak freely about the immigration issue. 'There's a real possibility, once Senator McCain is history, that she will likely take a much more hawkish position on immigration,' he adds. 'Now maybe that's just wishful thinking on my part -- it's possible, but I don't think so.'
Krikorian believes the comments Palin made in a recent interview with the Spanish-language network Univision reflected McCain's views -- not hers -- on the need to create 'a pathway to citizenship' for illegal immigrants.
