Long before Walker had his came to Jesus I’m running for President and don’t believe in amnesty anymore moment, Ted Cruz position was clear.
Ted has always been for secure the border first, then we decide what to do with the rest, but any illegals left will never receive citizenship or be able to vote.

If it’s taken Walker this long to understand that we should secure the border and give no path to citizenship, then what else does he not know. I don’t want to gamble with what he still needs to be schooled on in foreign policy. I’d rather he just keep learning at the State level.

“...then we decide what to do with the rest...”

That statement is another way of saying “amnesty”.

Living in Minnesota [next to Wisconsin], I can tell you that the open border is not one of the priorities of most of the citizens here as we are not that close to it. Only those of us who are: either politically active and knowledgeable or ; those of us who have relatives living along the border - are aware of the disasters going on down there.

Gov. Scott Walker had enough on his plate to deal with all the union thugs from Chicago and other leftist places coming into his state. They trashed the Wisconsin capitol building behaving not unlike the occupy Wall street idiots.

So, if he now says that after visiting the border areas and speaking with the Republican governors down there, I can believe that he could change his beliefs on the subject.

I have a sister in Green Valley, AZ. Nearly every night illegals are running through the yards of the GV citizens. And she says there have been frequent discoveries of dead people in the dessert areas - people who died from dehydration and heat prostration.

So, I think Walker should be given the benefit of the doubt regarding his change of heart on the handling of this issue.

For the sake of our younger citizens and the strength and survival of our beloved country, the border must be secured first! Then, if a path to citizenship is drawn up, let it demand certain things: speaking English; being employed; getting educated, paying taxes, not felons, etc.. Unfortunately, because of the numbers of illegals, it will not be possible to deport/expel all of them - and some of them will surely qualify to begin the citizenship process. Any laws that allow this must be well defined and enforced so that we can gain good citizens who are contributing to building up the country and not diminishing it by turning it into a third world cesspool.
