Ummmm....I did not hear her state that she is for amnesty or illegal immigration. I don't speak spanish, but the text of the interview was plain to see.

Do you then favor an amnesty for the 12 or 13 million undocumented immigrants?

No, I do not. I do not. Not total amnesty. You know, people have got to follow the rules. They've got to follow the bar, and we have got to make sure that there is equal opportunity and those who are here legally should be first in line for services being provided and those opportunities that this great country provides.

To clarify, so you support a path to citizenship for undocumented immigrants?

I do because I understand why people would want to be in America. To seek the safety and prosperity, the opportunities, the health that is here. It is so important that yes, people follow the rules so that people can be treated equally and fairly in this country.


In any case, she believes with what I do. I am ALL for immigration, as long as it's done LEGALLY!!!

If you advocate a "path to citizenship" that doesn't include leaving the country and getting at the end of the line, behind all the people that are waiting legally to get in, then you are for amnesty.

George Bush and John McCain are both against amnesty, but are for a pathway to citizenship. It's sophistry. They are one in the same thing. Her position is and was identical to McCain.
