Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA) is the appropriate approach of study to analyze ideological discourses for its eclectic characteristic. It is used in the present study to deal with the controversial nature of ideology and its relation to discourse. As a basis of social groups, ideologies serve the interests of its ingroup members and defend them. Therefore, the commonly used social practice to achieve this task is discourse.The present study, thus, aims at achieving five aims:identifying the type of ideology underlying Hillary Clinton, Angela Merkel, and Julia Gillard’s speeches on immigration; identifying the ideological strategies employed in these speeches; investigating the frequency of the ideological strategies in each speech; finding out why certain ideological strategy/strategies is/are used frequently more or less than the others; and illustrating the impact of ideologies on mental models, hence, discourse structures.These aims can be implemented through the following hypotheses: 1.Clinton, Merkel, and Gillard's ideologies are not negative.2.Ideologies will best be studied in terms of microstructures and macrostructures.3.Ideological strategies are distributed according to the microstructure levels.4.Clinton is more direct than Merkel and Gillard in expressing her ideology.5.Ideologies production and interpretation rely heavily on mental models.To make sure whether the above hypotheses are validated or not, two parts have been conducted; theoretical and practical. The theoretical part deals with investigating the relationship between discourse and ideology depending onCDA, especially van Dijk's Sociocognitive Approach. The practical part is concerned with the analysis of the ideological strategies used in the selected speeches.Thus, the study concludes that: 1.Clinton, Merkel, and Gillard's ideologies are anti-racist. 2.Ideologies, as social-cognitive representations, control the structure of discourse. 3.There is a clear relationship between ideological strategies and microstructure levels. 4.The implication strategy is given more attention in Merkel and Gillard's speeches than Clinton's. 5.Context models play a vital role in expressing and interpreting ideologically biased discourses
