Bachmann is good on illegal immigration, and I would support her if she won the nomination, but I don't think you can say Herman Cain is bad on this issue. Romney, Perry, and now Gingrich have showed their stances on the issue, and I won't even vote for them against Obama if it comes down to that.

I want our borders secured before we start talking about what to do with the ones already here. Cain has a record of talking tough on the issue of illegal immigration, and actually taking it serious. It's just like his border fence “joke”, showed me he was serious about the issue even if he hadn't thought about the exact detail of getting the issue resolved. He's said he would be giving Arizona, and Alabama a medal for their anti-illegal immigration laws instead of suing them. Can you really imagine Romney, Perry, or Gingrich even saying that? Sheriff Joe Arpaio said he believed Cain would do something serious about the border. Cain also got the endorsement of former Conservative Congressman Tom Tancredo, who is known for his staunch anti-illegal immigration stances.

While I agree that Bachmann has it right on illegal immigration, I also think Cain is in that same category. That's why we have no excuse to nominate a candidate who's bad on this issue when we have at least two Conservatives who are right on this issue. While some people might say it's a bad strategic idea I wouldn't mind seeing them on the same ticket. I also think Cain should bring up the illegal immigration issue when he's being attacked for his foreign policy experience. He's right on the most important foreign policy issue that we're facing, and that dwarfs anything the others have done who are on the wrong side of illegal immigration. He could ask some tough questions when being attacked on this issue, considering he is among the very few who is thinking like the vast majority of U.S. citizens when it comes to this issues.

So what you are saying is that you are a conservative yet you will vote for a Marxist that may get more opportunities to stack the Supreme Court, right? He’s already put 2 far left dykes in, who’s next? A gay Marxist? Muslim?
