Watching the video now. He sounds like a true believer. Not a slickster. I hope he goes far.
Charlie needs to lose next year.
Rubio would be better.
The interviewer looks somewhat like Andy Garcia.
National Review (Freddoso) did a long interview, also. You have to go to their website for the full transcript.

I’m 12 minutes in out of 25 minutes and they haven’t talked about immigration (the title of the video)
But he’s got awesome positions on 2nd amendment rights, life, property rights, national security... great stuff.
I’d recommend everyone take the time to watch it.
Bump for later...
The immigration portion starts at 16:50.
This guys will go far. He may never get GOP support, but he will get a lot of grass roots support.
I know you are in TX and I’m in CO, but this guy sounds good to me. We need to support well spoken, rising stars like this.
I mentioned on a different thread that I would like to see Cornyn and Steele take this video and adopt his reasoning as the campaign-speak on just about every issue.
Unfortunately, they’re too busy trying to convince people to act like rats.
Grass roots is the only option.
I plan to send him $$$. I am done donating to the RNC, RNSC, RNCC... my money is going direct to people like Rubio, Toomey, Russell, Bachmann, etc.
There is an article out today that the GOP has decided to use the Emanuel playbook for recruiting — people “they” think can win vs platform. To say the GOP is clueless would be an understatement.
GOP leadership... Agreed.
