"It does appear to be the issue out here wherever we are," said Huckabee. "Nobody's asked about Iraq - doesn't ever come up. The first question out of the box, wherever I go - Iowa, New Hampshire, South Carolina, Florida, Texas it doesn't matter - is immigration. It's just red hot, and I don't fully understand it."

1) If you don't understand the #1 issue of the people of the country, you shouldn't be president. 2) Just two years ago, we were told that NOBODY cared about illegal immigration. (We knew the MSM was lying).

I know that there are illegals in Arkansas; aren’t they hired by Tyson, etc.? Man, how could he NOT know what a problem this is? All you have to do is take a look at life in the border states.

Middle class Americans here in SoCal are scrimping and saving to get their kids educated (difficult in the public schools, with the kids who do not speak English in the lower grades and the gangs in the upper grades) and give them the medical and dental care they need, while they see their own hard-earned taxes going to pay for everything for free for illegals.

It’s getting hard to “support your community” with charity when you hear that most of the funds then ALSO will go to illegal alien kids, the vast majority of the “poor.”

But I fear that Huckabee cares MORE for people who wouldn’t play by the rules than those who do, as evidenced by his pardon frenzy.
