Mr. Walker said undocumented immigrants should be allowed to "eventually get their citizenship without being given preferential treatment" ahead of people already in line to obtain citizenship.

"He said no to citizenship now, but later they could get it," said Bill Greiner, an owner of the Copper Door restaurant. Ken Merrifield, mayor of Franklin, N.H., who also attended, said Mr. Walker proposed that illegal immigrants should "get to the back of the line for citizenship" but not be deported.
Here's a Wall Street Journal article..

No. When you begin your residency in the US by breaking the law, it teaches you disrespect for the law. It's foolish to expect that lawbreakers would become good citizens without any consequences for their actions to teach them that the law matters and must be respected. They should be sent home and banned from the US for five years. After that, if they want to enter the US, they should do it legally.

I'm probably going to get flamed for this...
Yes, I do agree. These people are a significant part of our economy. They take many positions and do many tasks that no one else will or wants to do. I believe the US government knows this and it is why, for the most part, they are ignored.
