Rick Perry, aside from Herman Cain are the only two candidates that have been responsible for creating jobs in one form or another.

I’m not too concerned about social issues at the moment. They will play themselves out in the states.

I am concerned about National Security, Wealth and Job creatiion and getting our economy straightened out. Perry will do that.

For the border? Reagan did nothing, Bush did nothing, Clinton did nothing, Bush did nothing, Obama did nothing. If history repeats itself, the next President will do nothing.

Well, then scratch the National Security and getting our economy straightened out off the list as 'will do'.

I WISH Reagan had done "nothing". Alas, he did far, far worse.

The president does not "create jobs" .... well unless you are talking about more government jobs. Capitalism in the private sector creates jobs. It is not necessary that we elect someone who has created jobs in his past work experience..... it's just important that we elect someone who knows how jobs are created and will set the nation on that path.

And as for "National Security" ...... is Perry really changing his stance on illegal immigration? Or is he just talking what he knows the tea party wants to hear?

No doubt he works hard and is thrifty and has faith, all good qualities in a candidate, but we must look deeper! I'm sorry, my gut feeling for now is that we can't trust an all-to-recent Democrat.

I feel the same as you do and I want a candidate who will do something about those issues and Gov Perry will.

For those who are so concerned about illegal immigration, I would be curious as to which of the candidates who are running today, would do something about it? I believe you are right about the past presidents not doing something about it and future presidents won’t either due to the fact they don’t want to tick off the Hispanic base and like it or not, many are voters and with their population increasing many politicians are afraid to tackle it head on out of fear of losing votes. I’d be curious to know which of the candidates running for office has made illegal immigration one of their top priorities as I haven’t heard anything regarding it except for vague talking points.
