Reagan never disassociated himself from his stance on immigration.
He was a man and could be wrong.
Sometimes he was right.
Total B.S. Read his farewell address to the nation when he left office. If you're to lazy to look it up, I'll find it (again) and post it.
When he granted amnesty, he wanted crackdowns on employers. Predictably, he ended up with the amnesty, but Congress rejected the other half. Remember the "shining city on a hill" part of his farewell address? The next sentence goes on to say "and if the city has to have walls..." (paraphrasing). It then goes on to say, that there should also be doors (obviously for legal immigrants).
Since you've called other people on this post "retards" among other things, genius, do you think he was talking about walls on the Eastern and Western seaboards?
He recognized the problem, tried to solve it, got screwed over, and realized the only solution.
