The popular position is to oppose illegal immigration while saying kind things about legal immigration. But ask one of those folks about whether we should make it easier to enter legally and they're either totally ignorant of how difficult it is to enter legally, and suspicious of the idea of making it easier, or they just don't like the idea of allowing more legal immigration. At least, that's what it seems like to me. The real debate, IMO, is not really about legal vs. illegal. It's about how much immigration we want, total. It's my opinion that most of those hard core against illegal immigration don't really want more legal either.
