I prefer Cruz’s position of no path to citizenship over Walker’s let them pay a $100 fine position.
I also seriously doubt his opinion or the opinion of Cruz will do much to influence a Congress full of pigs already beholden to the masters of international finance who are the root of the problem.
That said, King Barry being above the law stands as a singular example of what a President can't Constitutionally do but a King can do when Congress is bought and paid for. Read through what a President who abides by the Constitution can do and it boils down to enforcing the laws on the books which now call for said illegals to be deported.
Which candidate would and could do that if elected President remains to be seen no matter what any of them say.
"....“We need to focus where there’s agreement: securing the border and improving legal immigration,” [Sen. Ted Cruz] said. “And once we demonstrate we can secure the borders, I think then we can have a conversation about people who are here illegally.”
Cruz added that he tried unsuccessfully to pass an amendment to the bipartisan immigration bill that passed the Senate in 2013 that would have barred undocumented immigrants from receiving citizenship but still allowed them to obtain permits to live and work in America. Its failure, he said, showed Democrats were unwilling to compromise on citizenship at all costs.
Cruz’s anecdote again left things open to interpretation. At the time he offered his citizenship amendment, The New York Times described it as Cruz seeking a “middle ground” between full citizenship and mass deportation in which undocumented immigrants could still work legally in America.
On Wednesday, however, a spokesman for Cruz, Brian Phillips, clarified to msnbc on Twitter that this interpretation was incorrect and Cruz merely offered the amendment as an exercise to prove Democrats’ obstinacy on citizenship. It was not an endorsement of the work permit component of the bill that his amendment left intact.
“Cruz’s amendment had nothing to do with that issue,” Phillips said.
Cruz offered an unambiguous defense of greater legal immigration, where he boasted that he had offered to expand an annual cap on H1B visas for high-tech workers “fivefold” in order to attract more talent to the United States...."
