6-year-old with undocumented parents could get debate question

"If you deport my parents, what happens to me?"

That’s the question 6-year-old Sophie Cruz wants to ask the presidential nominees at Sunday night’s town hall debate.

Cruz's question about immigration is getting attention on social media as part of an effort to put the question to Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton and Republican nominee Donald Trump.

"If you deport my parents, what happens to me? I am 6 years old and an American citizen. I have a 3 year old sister who is also an American. My heart is very sad, because I’m scared that ICE is going to deport my undocumented mommy and daddy,” reads the text of Cruz’s question as posted on the Open Debate Coalition website.

Celebrities such as hip-hop mogul Russell Simmons have tweeted in support of Cruz, as have many immigration activists.

If you deport my parents what happens to me???   Same thing as if they move by their own choice.   You're 6 years old. You go with them.  Next question???

The rule should require that only registered voters are permitted to ask questions.  Or at a minimum, that only people eligible to vote may ask questions.  Having kids or non-citizens ask questions shouldn't be permitted in the first place.

With all of the professed support the family is receiving, one would think they've had meetings with immigration attorneys already.

I'm too heartless, my answer to the kid would be, "why don't you ask your parents why they haven't seen anyone that could help them legally stay in the US?"

I've got a 6 YO grandson, and he knows how his "Opa" rolls.

We know his/her parents are illegals, why are they not already deported?


This whole issue makes me want to vote Trump.

Little 6-year-old Sophie Cruz says her question to Trump will be asked in words he will understand since they are both at the same mental age.
