Here in Texas, illegal immigration is a touchy subject. It creates an unusual political climate that people in other parts of the country can't fathom.

Truth is, you don't last long as a Pol here without having to walk a tightrope.

Perry hasn't done everything I think should be done, but, the Feds (as we've seen by their actions against other states) tend to stand in the way. Perry. for example, can't any longer order troops to the border without the Presidents approval.

Here's what he has done:

I know plenty of what he’s done. Along with the DREAM act and opining in Mexico that he longs for an open border and opposing the step AZ has taken and opposing a fence and on and on.

I don’t want him anywhere near federal policy on immigration—and that means nowhere near the presidency.
