Oh yeah, most of these people are crashing the border for college tuition.
Actually, they’re coming for the ESL programs. /s
Your question asked for an answer in Spanish. What was I supposed to do, answer in English? :-P
I don ‘t believe Paul used the word “most”. That was you.
How about "any"? Does anyone believe that "any" of these people are motivated to crash the border because of TX college tuition discounts? That's just a hollow argument. They're coming for the free stuff because a shack in San Diego is a mansion next to their old home. And trust me, there are tons of shacks going up in San Diego.
And I'll go even further. They don't have any lofty ambitions to get an education or start their own company. If they get their kids in an American school and are able to buy a 50" tv, they're golden.
I didn’t ask for your OPINION in any language.
Perry’s support of ILLEGAL aliens was then and continues to be at taxpayer expense and it was unnecessary. That isn’t opinion, it is fact in any language.
Giving taxpayer subsidized freebies to anyone will cause them to come to you. That is not a hollow argument, it is a fact.
We all agree that we have a problem. What is your solution.
It isn’t totally inactive on abortion. Rand Paul doesn’t agree with the pro-life platform though.
“On January 22, thousands gathered on the National Mall in Washington for the annual March for Life that takes place on the date that Roe v. Wade was decided by the Supreme Court.
The same week, the Republican National Committee decided that it was time for the national party to wade back into the pro-life waters after a perceived hiatus from using it as a platform issue. A “Resolution on Republican Pro-Life Strategy” formally re-established abortion as a 2014 election issue for the party and seeks to push back on the “war on women” rhetoric that Democrats have made synonymous with the pro-life movement.
The RNC clearly believes once again that a prominent pro-life position plays well with voters. Perhaps the national party has taken note of what’s happening at the state level. Twenty-four states enacted 53 anti-abortion measures in 2013 alone.
Research from the pro-choice Guttmacher Institute shows that in the last three years, states have enacted an unprecedented 205 different abortion restrictions. This was made possible by the fact that over half of the states in the union have pro-life governors and pro-life majorities in their legislatures.”
Not to mention it went down in flames.
It was never built.
.
A real conservative like Ted Cruz in the White House would be a good start as would sending pro-ILLEGAL alien/amnesty-loving Republicans in congress the way of Eric Cantor.
In state tuition is not luring gang bangers and non English speaking students to the US. That is nonsense.
Rand Paul is simply trying to paint a target on Perry to distract from his own missteps lately. Things just aren’t going so good for Rand Paul. Yesterday, he was on TV trying to walk back his statements that he would support withdrawing foreign aid to both Israel and the Palestinians. He kept saying that he never VOTED to withdraw funds from Israel. That may be true, but he was saying that he would support such an action.
Rand Paul has also been criticized for his immigration proposals as weak. When you think about it, everything that Rand Paul stands for are simply middle of the road, no action policies that would not change the direction that the Progrssives are taking us.
Or not.

It probably never will be built,because the idiots who passed it into law were so dumb they could not see that it is almost impossible to implement, but it was be codified into law at the federal level long before Perry ever took office..
Employing your “logic”, the ILLEGAL hordes that have flooded over our southern border in recent months aren’t coming for the free food, shelter, clothing, health care, education and lawyers, either. You’re free to believe that if you so choose, I’ll stick with reality.
Luring gang bangers? I don't think that, and to my knowledge Paul has never said it.
That is not what I said. What I said was that the illegals are not coming for low a cost college education. That’s ridiculous.
And what particular studies show that college tuition discounts bring them over? If it's a fact, there must be supporting evidence.
I know of no study that says the sun will come up tomorrow, though it is a fact that it will.
If it's studies you want do your own research.
