Yet for Amadou, who helps operate the robot the team built, success has come at a price. As the group prepared for the flight to Atlanta today, he was forced to reveal his secret: He is an illegal immigrant from Senegal, with no ID to allow him to board a plane. Left here long ago by his mother, he has no way to attend the college that has accepted him, and only a slim chance to win his two-year court battle against deportation.

Yep, those illegal immigrants. Awful criminals who come here to steal our taxes and ruin our culture.

Oh.... Wait.

Guess thats the argument of someone who has never met an illegal immigrant in his life.

(Or at least, doesn't know he has.)
