Apparently you don’t understand the dynamic here.

Legal immigrants go through the trouble because they respect our system. They know the value of becoming American.

Cruz is making a very shrewd move here. He’s illustrating the difference between legal and illegal.

Do you get it yet?

Cruz is preempting anyone who tries to call him anti immigrant.

All they can do now is call him anti breaking the law.

Perhaps they did in the idyllic days of immigration, of the late 1800s and early 1900s.

However, with a federal government that's hostile to entrepreneurship and inalienable rights, what is their REAL purpose of coming here, especially when politicians are putting foreigners over Americans?

They know the value of becoming American.

Oh, they do? The Syrian refugees and other Muslims coming here in droves thanks to Obama and the GOPe will magically respect our Constitution?

Perhaps this is an inoculation for the “xenophobe” charge, but lets see what he proposes specifically to remedy the illegal immigrant infestation.

‘Legal immigrants go through the trouble because they respect our system. They know the value of becoming American.’

Agreed. Legal immigrants become citizens; illegals are just leaches.

The industry I’m in has been swamped and overwhelmed by H1-Bs, who have smashed wages.

Zero interest in this proposal, and less and less with Cruz, who doesn’t seem to get what we are fighting for.

Not to mention the Hindu white collar crime wave that goes largely unreported, but talk to big city detectives about who is behind a.lot of identity theft and credit fraud.

No thanks Ted!

That will make me feel better when I am unemployed or have to work for half my current salary. So f-ing shrewd. Not every Freeper is retired and in the peanut gallery, some if us are still on the playing field.
