CNSNews.com) - Sen. Marco Rubio (R-Fla.) says he is working to craft an alternative version of the DREAM Act that would allow younger illegal aliens who came to the United States "through no fault of their own" to stay here legally and, if they wished, get in line to become a citizen.
"There is nothing that prohibits them from getting citizenship,” Rubio told the Tampa Bay Times in an April 3 interview in which he explained his plan. “We just don't create a new pathway. The bottom line is they would have a visa of some sort and like they and any other visa holder in this country can get in line and apply for residency. You have to wait in line but you get to wait in line in the U.S. legally.”
“They would be here living, studying, working, while they're waiting in line,” Rubio said. “We have a broken legal immigration system. Someone would say, 'Well it's going to take them forever to get residency.' Well, that's true of anybody. The system has to be modernized but that's a separate topic. It doesn't create a pathway to citizenship directly but doesn't prohibit them from entering the regular pathway."

Friends of ALIPAC,
On March 28, 2012 I spoke at a horse and pony show hearing addressing illegal immigration laws at the NC General Assembly. Unfortunately, the illegal aliens and their invasion supporters outnumbered American defenders like us by 2 to 1.
So many illegal aliens were allowed to speak in the limited time allowed while many Americans including candidates for Congress and law enforcement officers were prevented from speaking, since illegal aliens were allowed to eat up the time for public input.
When I spoke about the many North Carolinians killed by illegal aliens, the illegal immigrants behind me to my right began to laugh and chuckle. It is hard to hear them but you can see my reaction in this video.
Please help us today with two fast and simple volunteer actions.
Step 1: Please watch, share, distribute, comment and rate this new video...
Illegal Aliens Laugh about Americans Killed by Illegal Immigrants

Step 2: Please call (919) 733-4111 from any state in America and ask for the offices of NC Senate President Pro Tem Phil Berger and then NC Speaker of the House Thom Tillis and tell them or their voicemail....
“I’m calling for Phil Berger/Thom Tillis to resign from his leadership position for supporting illegal immigration and blocking any state laws that would protect Americans from illegal immigration.”
(Remember that these offices will not appreciate your call and may lie and try to argue with you that their members are not supporting illegal immigration. They will be upset that you know the inside scoop on what is happening. They may try to debate with you which is expected when we take on illegal alien supporters in an adversarial way)
Thank you for taking a few short minutes of your day to take steps that can help in our battle against illegal immigration and against Amnesty for illegals.
Sincerely,
William Gheen
President, Americans for Legal Immigration PAC (ALIPAC)

Rubio’s been drinking from the RINO cup.
There's no reason whatsoever to pander this year and yet here we have Rubio pandering.
Does he think he has to do that to keep his Hispanic street cred?
As I just pointed out this guy doesn't have enough experience in life to be a suitible candidate for VP. Then he goes and proves it once again. This stuff just doesn't quit with this guy.
