free education ($8K+/kid)
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Even here on Free Republic people grossly **under**estimate the cost of government K-12 schooling. The real cost is between $20,000 to $30,000!

The cost usually given by government k-12 schools is merely the operating costs. **Never** included are the teachers pensions and retirement benefits, building and construction, and the many county services that are provided, for example police services.

In my state there are no private schools ( even the most exclusive) with tuition as high as what it costs to send a child to a government school.

Actually, the author/writer is William A. Jacobson.

He’s a clinical professor of law at Cornell Law School and the publisher of Legal Insurrection, a politics and law website.

It is the most important issue of the new century. Secure the border. End birthright citizenship . Enforce employment laws. Deport all criminals. Turn back all people cAptured at the border to Mexico regardless of nationality or age. Etc

> Even Mexican Americans do not like the illegals flowing freely across the border as they know they do not improve this country one iota.

I just had dinner with a Mexican American couple yesterday who said that very thing. Even my soon to be daughter in law who is Hispanic and doesn’t speak a lick of Spanish agrees with this. They know we are getting Central America’s “leftovers” for political purposes to overwhelm the country’s resources intentionally. Everyone that has a brain is starting to suspect that our country was duped into voting a faux president in to destroy us from within. This was all a pre-planned invasion and take over using ideologies and exploitation of racial politics. It has the feel of a Communist / KGB / GRU strategy from the 60’s and I suspect thats exactly where its origins lie.

What’s great about Trump is his straight talk. I know everyone here is sooooooo sick of being lectured to by politicians of all stripes in a patronizing LYING manner like we’re 3 year olds. Most politicians talk to us like they’re freaking kindergarten teachers and we’re toddlers or mental patients who can’t “see” the doublespeak and fabrications in plain sight.

I think it’s refreshing to have someone who treats the public like we’re intelligent people — and, Trump’s quite funny too, which is a mark of intelligence.

He isn’t smarmy, shady, insulting and chloroform-personified – like Owebama.

He does hit it. Other than misspelling the girl’s name continually, this is great. The best part imo:

>>>>> Illegal immigration and open borders have made voters increasingly angry because they reflect the growing lawlessness of society and the willingness of Republicans to capitulate to leftist identity politics. The sense that we are losing control of our own country, by the design of politicians, is creating a fury — and an opening for a politician willing to recognize that the problem poses an existential threat to our own freedoms. <<<<<

If Trump’s dragging the immigration issue into the harsh light of scrutiny causes the eventual GOP nominee to grow a couple stones and commit to security the border first, WITHOUT all the “what do we do with the millions already here” tripe, then Trump’s candidacy will have paid off.

> Enforce e-verify?

Well...Gee!....What would happen to Obama?

Well they would have to run his multiple social security numbers -1st flag
Social security numbers registered in states where he never lived - 2nd flag
Sovial secrity numbers registered to other person - 3rd flag

But since he’s black and lives in a PC rich environment - PASS

“Send a copy to your Senators and Reps right now and whenever you communicate with them.”

I have found that communicating with my Senators and Reps is futile. They don’t care; they march to a different beat once they secure the election. Research how Bill Cassidy campaigned as opposed to his voting. COMPLETE opposites. And his term is for six years. Toward year number 6, he may vote correctly, once.

Hell many are saying he is the False Prophet that will herald in the AntiChrist. Seeing it everywhere and there is talk that the September UN meeting is the formal announcement of the NWO. True or not I don’t know but he is starting to walk and quack like a duck...

I have seven kids. Every time my wife has a new one, I get a pay cut.

Every time Juan and Maria have one, they get a raise.

Not gonna work, long-term.

Wish the libs would tell us how they’d feel if one of their loved ones was killed by one of Obama’s catch-and-release perps.

I saw that with Isakson(aka, x-files cigarette man) and Chambliss. Chambliss knew he was going to be in a dog fight, so he retired. Next up, Isakson, 2016. We need to primary him out.

The problem is twofold:

1. The illegals coming into this country are often illiterate even in Spanish, many from indigenous tribes in central and southern Mexico that can barely even speak Spanish! As such, reading materials or even TV/radio broadcasts in Spanish can't help these people.

2. As such, many of them end up in a life of criminal activity, ending up with criminal gangs like MS-13. This is why there are serious crime issues with the illegals, though of course not as bad as the border towns on the Mexican side of the US-Mexico border.

True and that’s not the only issue we’re furious about. There’s a lot more energy that a candidate could tap into if they simply took the opportunity.

I don't give a damn what Trump has been or said or done in the past or 'what his game is'.
His changes of ever becoming president are miniscule, but at least he's out there NOW telling stupid, PC crippled Americans the truth; what Obama has done to America and that illegal aliens flooding across our open border are murdering and raping and bankrupting us.
NO Rino and Republican has the balls to get out there and tell the truth like Trump.
