During his bus tour through Tennessee, Sen. Lamar Alexander was approached by someone asking him why he voted to support amnesty.
“I voted against amnesty,” Alexander replied.
The video was provided to Breitbart News by the “Beat Lamar” effort by the Real Conservatives National Committee Super PAC opposing Alexander’s re-election.
Alexander’s answer is consistent with his claim that by voting for the Senate "Gang of Eight" immigration reform bill, he voted to end amnesty.
"We have amnesty today,” Alexander said in June. "Turning your head while 11 million people are already here illegally is perpetual amnesty. I voted along with 67 other United States senators to end perpetual amnesty.”
Anti-amnesty critics, however, insist that by voting for the Senate bill, he voted to give amnesty through a "path to citizenship" for millions of illegal immigrants currently living in the U.S. after ten years.
Alexander’s primary challenger Joe Carr has made Alexander’s vote a key part of his campaign, running a television ad on the issue.
“President Obama created this crisis only after Lamar Alexander voted for amnesty. He is responsible,” Carr explains in the ad.

Alexander voted for the McCain-Schumer Gang of 8 bill! He can’t escape his vote!
Lamar is desperate. On the TN Republican senate primary ballot, there are a total of seven people (including Lamar and Carr). Funny how there’s suddenly so many candidates in the running when a Senator is actually in danger of being primaried.
PING
Er, thats called lying Lamar.
Lamar! voted against amnesty after he voted for amnesty. Easy explanation for TN
His best bet is that TN people recognize Lamar! and no one else.
The sad thing is that there's a good chance that he will fool enough LIV's with his lie. A liar with $ 5 million in his pocket is really tough to beat.
Where IS Sarah Palin? She needs to be in Tennessee.
The people need to unite nationally to help Carr, like we did with Scott Brown or Chris McDaniel. We’re not sending money to GOPe, let’s send it to Carr!
When you call his office and ask how he will vote on immigration they say that Senator Alexander does not comment on future votes. Gee I wonder why. I had no plans for voting for him, but was even more alarmed when I looked at his voting record in depth.Check out his FB page..he’s patting himself on the back about a bill concerning African ivory. Seriously, the world is blowing up and this is what you focus on? He sure can’t brag about his horrible votes. He lies and lies and people believe him. I have nothing but contempt for him-, along with the self labeled conservatives who endorse him. He’s also co-sponsoring a bill to tax all internet purchases from other states. If he wins the primary, will not hold my nose and vote for the lesser of two evils...am done. The “lessers” get more evil with every election.
