Reagan was under the impression that 1 million illegals would be legalized in 1986, and that our border control would be tightened so that we would never again have to face the same issue. How could he know that Seniors Bush, Clinton and Bush would sell this nation out the way they have on this issue.

Around 13 to 15 million illegals reside in our nation today. That's a conservative estimation BTW. Comparing Reagan to the other three men on this issue is misleading in the extreme.

Amnesty was a reward for illegal activity.

The very talk of amnesty led to millions more running over the border to win the US citizenship lottery.

Reagan was the first to do this wasn't he?

Did I vote for him, absolutely. Would I vote for knowing what I know now, absolutely.

My point is that he wasn't the perfect "conservative".

There is no perfect conservative.

I think Bush is right on the major issues. He has his flaws. He deserves our support.
