As the donor class continues to push for a Rep. Paul Ryan (R-WI) Speakership, conservative activists have renewed their scrutiny of Ryan’s support for a radical Republican policy of open borders. Breitbart News has discovered yet another little-noticed video in which Ryan articulates his commitment to immigration policies that would dissolve America’s sovereignty. The video, uploaded by the Journal Times, shows Ryan at a July 2013 bilingual Hispanic Listening Session in Racine, Wisconsin. At the meeting, Paul Ryan told a predominantly Hispanic audience that the job of a U.S. lawmaker is to put oneself in the shoes of foreign nationals who want to come to the United States, then work to discover solutions to make their lives better.
The Journal Times notes that the purpose of the meeting was for Ryan to “explai[n] to them his motives” for pushing to enact Sen. Marco Rubio’s amnesty and mass immigration agenda in the House of Representatives.
As Ryan spoke, translators conveyed his message to audience members who did not speak English.
Ryan declared:
This is the American Dream. This is the American idea. Look, put yourself in another person’s shoes, which if you’re in elected office, that’s what you kind of have to do that almost every single day.

This guy is a Romney on steroids. We do not need another Obama enabler to run the HOuse.
No wonder Harry Reid is enthusiastic on endorsing this fool.

All the multi-national politicians need to be Cantorized
So go over there Paul, and stay there...in their shoes.
And THAT is what is wrong with Washington.
They have sold out the U.S. citizens.
Paul Ryan is bought off by foreign special interest lock, stock and barrel.
He is John Boehner Part II.
FYPR!
Maybe his mind was somewhere else when he took the oath of office.
This is the oath he has taken on more than one occasion:
“I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; that I take this obligation freely, without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion; and that I will well and faithfully discharge the duties of the office on which I am about to enter: So help me God.”
I’m pretty sure that folks illegally entering the country are “enemies”.
This guy should not be in the running
What kind of per diem does Mexico offer its lawmakers, Paul?
So I guess for Ryan to look out for the interests of US citizens, he would have to hold elective office in a foreign country.
Did I get that right, Paul?
Mexico seems nice.
What a Maroon ping.
Wake up, GOP!
yeah, you stupid republicans,
install this boob as your leader.
Rino, amnesty, Boehner butt boy.
Oh hell yeah.
enough with the obammy ass kissing.
Grow a set and back a conservative for a change else lose us conservatives.
Paul Ryans’s a lot like Jeb... he thinks he’s so superior to American citizens that he’s a ‘citizen of the world’.
Well, there isn’t a country called ‘world’ and these idiots need to check their big fat egos and come down to earth.
They’re representing the people of the United States.
Period.
Next time Paul or Jeb wants to think crazy - ask them to tell us the name of a foreign politician they respect who looks down on his own country.
I’d sure like to know the name of one.
How many times does he have to say that he does not WANT to be in the running? I think that's precisely the reason for his "demands" -- to make his election so unpaletable as to make it impossible. That way he keeps the job he has and the schedule he has worked out for his family. Somebody else drinks the poisoned cup.
P. Ryan is wrong and twisted. Job of U.S.lawmaker is NOT to put yourself in shoes of foreign citizens. It is to do what is best for U.S. citizens.
Ryan is yet another TOOL/FOOL.
