Now how do you propose rounding up 12 million illegal immigrants w/o providing due process? Or perhaps, due process does not matter.

It's funny because I'm writing on that subject right now. Do you know that Miranda warnings and unreasonable search and seizure don't apply absent egregious circumstances?
see Lopez-Mendoza; Navia-Duran v. INS. The rationale being that deportation is a 'civil administrative proceeding' and not criminal as you expect. Funny, because most defendants in civil cases aren't locked up and shipped around the country like cattle.
Nonetheless, due process in the immigration sense encompasses agencies following their own regulations, which, may or may not be in step with the constitution's requirement of due process.
