Hell, Steve King introduced a bill January to eliminate birthright citizenship, HR 140 and Vitter has introduced a similar bill in the Senate. Every year for more than a decade bills have been introduced to do this. Some one should ask this wuss if he supports this effort.

The 14th amendment does not grant birthright of illegals that cross the border and give birth citizenship for baby. It does allow congress to determine immigration policy. It can be changed any time the congress wants.

Greta just interviewed Cruz and he did a little tap dance on birthright citizenship. He said that it would require a constitutional amendment or Congress may be able to pass a law. However both will take a long time and we should focus first on securing the border. This has become the fall back position for those evading the issue.

I think he’s providing cover for what’s going on in the Senate. They want to clarify the 14th, not repeal it. All these laws already exist but they aren’t being enforced.

He’s talking about this horribly.

Ah! Walker wants us to first elect him as president before he clarifies his position on anchor babies.

I disagree. I think Scott Walker knew who he was until he stood on that stage with Donald Trump. As with all other candidates, Walker now has to pick a side-—patriotism or GOPe.

He has no idea what to do. But he keeps on talking.

He has core beliefs. Walker is a solid conservative. The problem is, is merely being conservative is not good enough. People want energy, passion, and a fighter's mentality to take back the nation against the Left. That's why Trump is in the lead.

Walker is running the typical GOPe campaign. I think Trump has created a huge paradigm shift here.

"I’m saying that until you secure the border and enforce the laws, any discussion about anything else is really looking past the very things we have to do."

Which is true. The problem of his opponents is their dependency on big government spending. May the repeating cycles of market collapses force government spending to be cut in half before the election and more afterwards.

When I was in college a bunch of people would go do LSD and would be tripping all over themselves.

Not sure what Walker in his (abbreviated) college days, but I suspect the same, given all his trouble trying to stake out a position on Illegal Immigration.

What a worthless POS.

He is waiting on the CoC, Norquist, and Preibus to tell him how to answer the question.

Not POTUS material.

Where are the Walker-bots? If you can’t tell the people your position in an instant, it means it’s not in your core.

Walker has a history of voting for amnesty as a county executive. This is no surprise.

That’s not a gotcha question. Walker doesn’t want to incur the wrath of the Chamber of Commerce. We’ve been hearing this crap from the GOPe ever since they were foiled from passing amnesty in 2006. Walker just proved he’s just another GOPe hack. He’s toast. No amount of consultants can fix that.

He’s like a loaf of bread made out of sawdust and cricket flour.


Your comment caught my eye. Could you parse that for me or elaborate on it.
