Scott Walker May Have Figured Out Immigration Populism

Number 2 is to stop the wholesale importation of Islamists

Yes...but we don't want to live in a Hispanic Corruptocracy.

The Latin countries are a failure for a reason: themselves.

Wholesale invasion and takeover will simply lead to the United States being another banana republic run by ranting demagogues.

Call it the M&Ms problem...Mexicans and Muslims.

We don't want to be Mexico OR Iran.

2. Closed door meeting with Chamber of Commerce amnesty pushers

Shall we try adding some context here?

The Phoenix Business Journal reports that’s what Gov. Walker did when he spoke this week to the Arizona Chamber of Commerce. It was part of a series featuring presidential contenders.

“I’d love to tell you what he had to say that was important enough for him to travel thousands of miles from home, but I can’t,” Travis Arbon writes. “The event was closed to the media.”

However, Arbon adds, “although ‘traditional’ media outlets were denied access, that didn’t stop the chamber from encouraging attendees to share the day’s events on social media through #AZLeadership on Twitter.”

So much for that talking point.

Regarding his flip-flopping, yeah, some of his earlier statements on amnesty bothered me, but he is on the right side of the issue now - as a tech worker in my fifties, I have to always be looking over my shoulder at the prospects of my job getting outsourced. Walker now understands that, whereas Ted Cruz proposed an amendment to the Gang of 8 amnesty in the Senate that would have significantly increased the number of H-1B visas.

So no one is without warts here. What I am interested in is a candidate who has beaten the Dems at their own game and is learning how to put Main Street over Wall Street. So far Walker is doing that very well, I hope Cruz improves as well so we have two solid conservative choices in case one stumbles. But I have no desire to see idiotic circular firing squads going on with half-baked talking points like you did here.

Scott has a problem.

He states his immigration policy has changed.

What do you do if you want to protect the jobs of U. S. Citizens? Don’t you send back the people who are here illegally holding down jobs?

In this video clip his old (2013) policy is aired in a second video clip. He backs illegals staying in the U. S. if they pay a fine.

It is also mentioned that he favored the McCain/Kennedy immigration bill. (You know, amnesty but not an amnesty) He acknowledges that.

Then in this (03/01/2015) clip, Walker is asked if illegals can stay, if they pay a fine. He responds with, I believes a way can be found to do that.

This is the same policy as his old policy.

Then he states that his policy has changed. No Scott, it hasn’t changed. You just got through endorsing the same policy, illegals being allowed to stay in our country if they pay a fine. So you even fibbed about it.

In 2006/07, 2013, and now in 2015, his immigration policy regarding illegal immigrants is the same as that under McCain/Kennedy. Let them pay a fine and stay.

Immigration is discussed starting at 9:20 and the “...a way can be found...” is located at 10:20

I’m in the Cruz court and have for sometime now....Walker would be another choice above the others though I have some real reservations about him, mainly that he’s not familiar with the rats nest in Washington and how it works when your there and in it. So there would be an adjustment time for him.

But I do agree with term limits....however they’ll never cut off the gravy train they have by being there....which is their first concern and that of saving their seat.
