/20/how_to_fix_our_illegal_immigration_problem_in_5_steps/page/full/
In this column, Mr. Hawkins takes on the very controversial matter of illegal immigration in a very balanced approach. In this article he cites 5 key factors that he believes can end this issue once and for all. This includes implementation of both physical and technological barriers that will ensure that no illegals are able to cross the border. However, while suggesting increased barriers, he also believes that a more effective visa application program would help end the issue as more immigrants would seek to use this benefit and enter legally in the process. Hawkins is able to convey is message through a series of effective rhetorical questions and a concrete issue, cause, effect, solution organization.
In the end, Hawkins touched on the political reality of this issue and that certain positions on illegal immigration may have great benefits for a party for office. It is obvious that he wants an end to this crisis and he wants to ensure that all law abiding people can live in the US through a legal process, yet he is weary of the role politics plays in the matter.
