Ok, about that stuff you posted.

Where do you live Kabar? Maybe you can perform a little polling experiment?

Go to Ferguson. Or Detroit. Or Baltimore. Or DC. Use the man on the street format and ask walker-bys if they will share whether they plan to vote in the next election or not, and if so, who for. And if you get any answers that say “TRUMP” and you follow-up with “Why”, please let me know how many of them recite the same info you just posted.

The truth is what you posted a lot of previous Republicans have advocated. Rick Santorum is the most recent I can think of who had a similar platform on this from 2012. Did he get any love from the black community? Of course not. You know why? Because they were too busy voting for Obama the Messiah. And why is that? Because Obama the Messiah delivers the goodies just like Trump the pseudo-conservative will.

And Trump undermined his own position by saying he wanted to expedite the “productive” ones back into the workforce after going home. What is Trump’s definition of the word “productive” as it pertains to illegals that would try to reenter legally, and what’s the cutoff?

I am a member of a grassroots immigration organization that lobbies on the Hill. Our organization commissioned a poll to determine attitudes on immigration. We found that 88% of blacks felt more strongly about immigration than any other group. They wanted legal immigration reduced and the illegals removed. No amnesty. The poll was conducted by Pulse in 2009.

We were involved a few years ago in the DC mayoral contest supporting a candidate who agreed with our views on immigration. We interviewed blacks in DC about immigration. They confirmed the findings in our poll. I remember one man who was a stonemason in DC. He was a veteran. He said he got more per hour 20 years ago than he gets now. Moreover, most of the people he works with are Hispanic. They don't speak English. He feels like an outsider in his own country.

In 2013 I helped organize the DC March for Jobs Check out the videos at the link. We got Jeff Sessions, Ted Cruz, Steve King, Allen West, and a number of prominent blacks to speak at the event. We had over 3,000 people many of them black.

The truth is what you posted a lot of previous Republicans have advocated. Rick Santorum is the most recent I can think of who had a similar platform on this from 2012. Did he get any love from the black community? Of course not. You know why? Because they were too busy voting for Obama the Messiah. And why is that? Because Obama the Messiah delivers the goodies just like Trump the pseudo-conservative will. In case you haven't heard, Obama is not running in 2016. Blacks are in worse condition than when Obama took office. The black teenage unemployment rate in urban areas is 95%.

No candidate has ever put forth an immigration plan like Trump's thanks to Jeff Sessions. It is revolutionary. And Trump is a celebrity unlike Santorum. Santorum's plan is nothing compared to what Trump is proposing. I wish Trump would stress more the protection of American jobs and stick to the points in the plan. I realize that the MSM and the Dems would rather focus on birthright citizenship and deportation. The most important part is what I posted, including the reduction of legal immigration.

Romney got 19% of the black vote age 18-24. I think much of it had to do with his immigration ideas. Trump can sell it if he sticks with the plan and doesn't wing it.

I have had one on one briefings with Cantor, George Allen, Ed Gillespie, and other Rep candidates stressing the Sessions approach. Only Dave Brat understood how immigration can be used as a winning issue for Reps. Now we have a Presidential candidate who was smart enough to go to Jeff Sessions and produce a policy that can change the political dynamics in this country. It is worth a shot.

Trump has done a great job of putting a face on the victims of criminal alien crime. No one has done that before. Instead all we got were sob stories about hardworking illegal aliens living in the shadows separated from their families.

Bottom line: Immigration can be a winning issue for Reps. It can penetrate traditional Dem constituencies including minorities and white blue collar workers. Both parties have abandoned the American worker.

Because he comes across as a dweeb. Comes across dweeb to most of America too, that’s why he cant win, not even his own seat.
And he stabbed us in the back with Romney too.
