I'm going to explain this to you once, and if you don't get it this time, you're not ready to vote. So here goes:
"TX second to CA in illegal pop. Under Perry illegals pop grew." Yes, but not as fast as CA's population, or even Arizona's. Not by a LONG SHOT.

Perry rejected Arizona's unconstitutional immigration law. - YES, he did, because it is unconstitutional. Border security is the job of the FEDERAL GOVERNMENT. Now hold that thought.

Perry voiced opposition to border fence. - Yes, he did. Because border security is the job of the FEDERAL GOVERNMENT. Texas has 64% of the border with Mexico, but only receives 20% of the border security funds. Perry drew a line in the sand, saying no fence until the feds ante up. It's their job and comes from their budget, not Texas'.

Subsidized in-state tuition. - He signed a bill that allowed anyone who attended public schools for three years while living in Texas to receive in-state tuition. It is not FREE tuition, and was a GREAT decision.

E-verify. E-verify doesn't work and is not free to employers. It is $127 per check. Illegals provide false documentation and slip right through. Also, unscrupulous employers have NO TROUBLE hiring illegals under the table. Also, E-verify is expensive and hurts small business. That's enough for now.

DREAM ACT. NO, it is NOT the same as Obama's bill. That is an outright lie. It is all about anchor babies...children that are born in this country as American citizens. Perry refuses to have these Americans deported to a country they have never known. Yes.

Whether your misrepresentations are intentional or you are simply mistaken, they are appalling.

Thanks for the info, now I realize that Perry is very wrong on illegals, and that is a very important issue for me. Are you being paid?
