Perry is very clever if he wants to pay tuition to only those illegals in the process of becoming citizens. Since illegals
can not apply for citizenship, no one gets tuition! Very clever.
My 2 favorites are Bachmann and Cain at this juncture. If you do not
like Perry, by all means do not vote for him in primary. Just
tell us all the good things about your preferred candidate instead
of flaming other republicans.
Lastly, I am against any kind of amnesty for illegals, but
all polls show the #1 issue is economy & jobs. If 0Bama wins
2nd term, illegals will get amnesty one way or other, bet on it.
Apparently Perry made sure that illegals could have access to taxpayer funded tuition.
