There is a path. Follow it

Exactly what Rand is calling for.

“The AP story was wrong, which spurred a lot of erroneous reports,” Paul’s office said in a statement. “He does not mention ‘path to citizenship’ in his speech at all.”

One Paul adviser told The Post that the path Paul is endorsing does not make it any easier to attain citizenship than current law allows.

“They would get into the back of the line and get no special privileges to do so,” said the adviser, who was not authorized to comment publicly. “What his plan is extending to them is a quicker path to normalization, not citizenship, and being able to stay, work and pay taxes legally.”

Later Tuesday, Paul attempted to clarify his position on the citizenship question. “I didn’t use the word citizenship at all this morning,” he said. “Basically what I want to do is to expand the worker visa program, have border security and then as far as how people become citizens, there already is a process for how people become citizens. The main difference is I wouldn’t have people be forced to go home. You’d just get in line. But you get in the same line everyone is in.”

Rand Paul: The solution doesn’t have to be amnesty or deportation-a middle ground might be called probation where those who came illegally become legal through a probationary period.

Probationary period leading to.... to..... c’mon you can say it: LEGALIZATION. Also known as AMNESTY.

“those who came illegally become legal” IS amnesty.

Politicians are latching on to this tactic of broadening the definitions of something to make it so broad that it is not specific enough to mean anything! Marriage is now between anybody and anything.....same will be done with citizenship = normalization of immigration status = citizenship means just being normal = nothing.
