College student body president admits he's an illegal immigrant - CNN.com: "(CNN) -- Pedro Ramirez is the student body president at Fresno State University in California. He is also an illegal immigrant.
Ramirez moved with his parents from Mexico when he was 3. He has little memory of living anywhere other than Tulare, California, located about 45 miles outside Fresno.
He said he assumed he was a U.S. citizen until his senior year in high school when his parents broke the news to him.
'I wanted to go to the military, but then I started asking questions and found out I wasn't a citizen. And then I found out I was undocumented,' Ramirez told CNN in a phone interview.
'I knew I was born in Mexico, but I was under the impression that we fixed our legal residency. So when I found out that wasn't the case, I was a little taken away. [My parents], they did it to protect me. They didn't do it as a harmful thing.'"

Ok I am here legally. What do I get?
