I'm not a Romney supporter in any way but this issue has to be delt with some way and rounding up children that have been living here and sending them to whatever country their parents came from won't work.

I don't see any other answer Romney can give ?

“I don’t see any other answer Romney can give ?”

Well, I sure do.

My kid has been trying to get a job the past two years since graduating from high school. He is attending a community college, so it isn’t like he is a slacker, but our area of the country has an unemployment rate around 27%. I know very few young people who can find work.

U.S. citizens must come first before illegal aliens. I don’t give a damn if they came here as children: deport them.

President Eisenhower rounded up illegal and deported them. So can we.

It's a problem.

He says there ought to be legislation crafted to deal with it.

Obama makes a dictatorial decree.

One is constitutional, one is a dictatorial decree.

Thus, this thread will blow up into "Romney is identical to Obama" because Romney said he agreed with someone who was once a darling of TEA party conservatism.

As for the issue at large. Romney could have simply mentioned it was the irresponsibility of the parents that the children now suffer from their actions. Children who have parents that commit crimes, and are put away in jail suffer. This is no different, once people understand that their family will suffer from their stupid decisions, perhaps that will lead to a better understanding of the problem.
