Huckabee will do very well in Iowa. Will hurt Walker for sure.

“You hear some people talk about border security and a wall and all that, to me, I don’t think you need any of that if you have a better, saner way to let people into the country in the first place.”

http://legalinsurrection.com/2015/02/so-what-is-scott-walkers-immigration-position/

Explain that then.

“You some kind of Bush Bot?”......ok Columbo....yeah I’m not wild about Walker and his “path to citizenship” amnesty stance....so I must be a supporter of the biggest amnesty candidate out there. Good one.

You might try reading up on Walker. He is good in a lot of areas, but his stance (and record) on illegals is pretty atrocious....that is unless you are a fan of the Mexican consulate he helped set up in Wisconsin...and being soft on illegals.

Giulliani did not “point out Obama’s past” but rather (appropriately) indicated that Obama does not love America,

He pointed out Obama's past as reasons for his lack of love of America, such as his mentors like Davis, Ayers and Wright, etc.

From the same interview:"“See now that’s where they take it out of context,” Walker said in response. “I’ve not said there should be amnesty in this country. I don’t believe that. I don’t support the legislation being kicked around. What I’ve said repeatedly is we need to fix the immigration system, but fix the legal system. So if people want to come in this country we should have a legal immigration system.”

I was very concerned when I read what you linked and I apologize because I should have known somebody would pop up with a politician saying exactly the opposite of what he currently espouses. That's true for every single POL (even Cruz). Under analysis, this comment is absolutely in line with what he believes. He is a problem solver not a temporary "fixer." He wants to fix the larger problem and provide a reasonable working solution to the long term issues. From what I've read of his other positions, I think he'd be perfectly amenable to border-crosser denial systems like fences, security zones with sensors and dogs or troops. He is a pragmatic guy.

As long as a person who did not graduate from college can explain his/her resumé, I am okay with that. Scott Walker is someone who won against big labor unions, and frankly, we do need that at this point.

A Walker/Carson ticket?

No. No more Herman Cain's. Carson has never held elective office, we know NOTHING about any skeletons in his closet which would bring down the ticket.

Scott Walker has been subjected to intensive "opposition research" over the past few years. So has Cruz.

Either Walker/Cruz or Cruz Walker, depending on who gets more primary votes.

In every respect Walker's a self made man with a record for getting things done in conservative style in a deep blue state. He's got to have the LIBTARDS crapping their pants. Not to mention Jeb! More importantly he's had no time in any institution where the establishment elite had any chance to put their slimy hooks into him. He's not a member of the Council on Foreign Relations and so hopefully this will mean for the first time since about 1915 there will be a minimal cabinet presence for that group and that means a truly free government. No wonder they're all crapping their collectivist pants!

The first part of his message was mainly a plea for American’s to wake up to recognize that a near majority are uneducated as to American history and current affairs (remember Leno’s Jay-Walking segments) and what individuals are capable of when given guidance at a young age (home schooled, private, schools, charter schools over public schools) but without it an entitlement mentality is created.

OK, make him a cabinet secretary or some such. Sec Education, Sec Health and Human Services, Surgeon General, whatever. He can be the President's cheerleader.

As long as the candidate was NOT indoctrinated by those socialist entities called colleges I’m for him/her. The BS we have seen from so-called intellectuals with NO practical experience is overwhelming.
