Some of them are more about candidates not yet having a record, and not having made a lot of comments about it, especially how they will handle it at a national level.
For example, Sarah Palin has a “D”. Let’s face it, you don’t deal with a lot of immigration issues as Governor of Alaska, so there’s not much to go on with her record. She’s made some statements, but she hasn’t put together a campaign platform yet.
I presume that if she enters, she’ll have a page on her web site where she details her intentions, and then it will be easier to rank her.
On the other hand, I have to wonder exactly how much this particular group is pushing for, when the BEST score for any possible presidential candidate is Bachman’s B-. They have set a pretty high bar, I think.
Exactly. And the only statement Palin’s made that she gets a red mark for is some sort of idea that as long as any American could lose a job, we shouldn’t allow any in-migration.
I’m for allowing in highly skilled and educated immigrants pretty much at any time, though I’d exempt them from government benefits for about a decade, perhaps even requiring ‘sponsors’ to assure that they didn’t become a burden.
What is killing the country is the possibility of absorbing upwards of 30 million highly unskilled immigrants (with Democrat inclinations on voting).
