Well, if Iraq turns out to be Afghanistan II, you will care about it at that point. Even if we had 500000 troops to guard the Mexican border, it won't work because we don't dare to do what needs to be done. So what good would 3 million troops do? Even if you were Prez, you still cannot do it without the US public behind you. We would need less than 250000 to seal the border if we make it Berlin Wall II with automatic gun turrets and landmines. Question is whether we have the stones for it. We didn't, don't and won't.
