Here is the speech without media commentary, people can read for themselves and decide.

Sad.

So new to the political scene and with such potential.

And so quickly off the rails.

RE :”Here is the speech without media commentary, people can read for themselves and decide.”

Its one thing to talk positive and characterize a race as positive, in this case conservative, to try to court some support, I understand his doing that. that is standard election politics

But its another to use it as a claim (clearly false) to get more of them the vote when they are biased to Dem issues.

Same question for Paul and Rub : where exactly do you draw the line on amnesty?

I think, first of all, that Paul has to go back to Kentucky and explain to those who elected him just why he did not run on that platform so they could decide. If he had, he would not be a senator today. Also, the American economy can not provide a place for millions of its native citizens and support entitlements presently. That speech was feel-good stupidity. I got a mailer from him yesterday. I can write more direct in his return envelope.

I like what Rand Paul has been doing on most fronts, but a speech by a Sinator that requires i first 'press one for English' is NOT good...

i suffered through about half of it, and can only say that my grandfathers immigrants, and coountry are NOT what todays immigrants and country are...

*IF* there was a desire by either to assimilate and work for each other, his points would be valid...

sadly, today, "WE the People" borrow money from abroad to advertise our foodstamp program to people in other countries, and those countries actively work to unload their third world population into our gravy train, en masse, to send all those *free* dollars back 'home' to their third world $h!thole$...

who are we kidding ??? my bet is that most could easily obtain papers if they really wanted to do so...removing the stick only emboldens the eating of the carrots from the garden...

and what ive scribbled here is only a slice of the underlying issues with massive invasion of foreign peoples/interests...

but hey, if we're still allowing muzzies from goatpackerabiastan to set up shop and build weapons caches and traing facilities, whats the harm in 20-40 million non English speaking dirt farmers...

that $50/head lettuce aint gonna pick itself...
