Definitely vote for McCain. Third party is a bad idea for now.
Definitely Definitely vote for McCain
Pledge to seal the borders and punish corporations that hire illegal immigrants at substandard wages without accountability. There are others but you asked for one :).
1. Vote for McCain. Not voting at all has about the same affect as casting a vote for the Democratic candidate.
2. Vote for McCain. Same reason.
3. Nothing really, other than being the only Republican choice on the ballot. I don't know much about his track record, but what I do know I don't trust. I would want to see him actually following through on the promises he has made before I would believe any -new- promises.
This would provide a nightmare for me because I really like both McCain and Obama. For me, the issue of McCain being a maverick is a positive not a negative as, at least for me, it indicates that he isn't beholden to one particular group of people and could effectively govern for all...not just the "chosen few."
Personally, I don't get why we've gotten so riled up about immigration in recent years. Putting that aside, I read your response to no. 3 and immediately wondered if you would be willing to apply your immigration policy to Cubans as well.

You consider my #3 an immigration policy? ::: laugh ::: sorry but that's an eensy bit of a simplistic policy if you do consider it one. I would hope that the next President would elaborate in great detail how, who, when, where and why they are sealing up the borders.
Sealing does not mean isolation...it means control and safety. It means honoring those who come here legally first.
The US has legal forms of entry for all immigrants and special exceptions for certain immigrants from different countries. I believe Cuba is one of them. Cubans immigrate here legally and illegally. Legally they are accepted, illegally they are already turned back. Since I am not running for President I don't think I need to elaborate any further.
Read Eric Schlosser's (liberal) book called "Reefer Madness." No, its not anything like the movie ... thank goodness. It is three essays and the first makes the case that illegal immigration and big business has created modern day slavery where illegal immigrants are routinely abused and murdered without any government accountability.
It is equally important for me to keep terrorists out as well as keeping the poor from Mexico from being exploited.
