Ben Carson: Borders Must Be Sealed to Keep Terrorists Out; Illegals Should Be Given Path to Amnesty
Breitbart ^ | 6/18/2015 | Breitbart News

Posted on 11/09/2015 10:55:18 AM PST by JediJones

Dr. Ben Carson...told a prominent group of Latino elected officials that he also supports giving illegal immigrants a path to legalization and eventual citizenship.

Addressing the National Association of Latino Elected and Appointed Officials (NALEO) in Nevada...

He added that, "as a compassionate nation, we should be asking what can we do to help the people in nations who feel that they don't have an opportunity." He cited Cameroon as an example where American companies are helping to develop land to produce produce, which benefits those in Cameroon who need jobs in addition to the American companies.

Regarding the country's illegal immigrants, Carson said, "many of them have never known any other country … so where are you going to send them?"

Carson said the country must "provide them a way so that they don't have to hide in the shadows" and "give them an opportunity to become guest-workers–they have to register, they have to enroll in a back tax program."

"And if they want to become citizens they have to get in the line with everyone else… because we have to pay homage to people who've done it the right way," Carson added.

He also told the audience that "what threatens to destroy is division" and blasted the "purveyors of division" who try to divide Americans based on race, age, income and a host of other issues...

Limbaugh may die from loss of blood over the Carson autobiography scandal.

How does this differ from the position of Bush or Rubio?

It doesn't.

But, because he is a Godly and decent man millions of so-called Conservatives are eager to vote for him.

I’m pretty sure our 1998 inception is above suspicion:)

I can't tell you how disappointing it was to hear Rush & Levin going nuts over this Carson crap on Friday.

It is because they still think in terms of "party" and feel that Carson is "one of ours."

I am not sure that either of them will ever get past that thinking, it is embedded deep within them.

Carson’s an incompetent buffoon.
A “Carson” on the ticket means I stay home - I’m done.

Does “...get in line like everybody else..” sound like “Amnesty” to you?

“I can’t tell you how disappointing it was to hear Rush & Levin going nuts over this Carson crap on Friday.”

Indeed. Carson is no friend of conservatives, and no friend of the GOP unless you count the GOPe.

“A number of us suspect that there is”

Interesting. Makes sense if lots of old, dormant accounts suddenly spring to life.

“What is an acceptable account age to be above suspicion?”

The suspicion about old accounts arises if they’ve been dormant for years without making any posts, and then suddenly start posting, especially when numbers of those types of accounts are single-issue posters and are all posting on the same issue, as apparently seems to be the case with numbers of such accounts suddenly coming out as Ben Carson supporters, making ad hominem attacks on regular posters indiscriminately.

Whenever the article starts out with “said candidate spoke to a Latino group” you know nothing good’s going to come next.

Here is the video of his speech:

He was the only Republican who spoke at this Latino conference.

To "get in line like everybody else" means they have to leave first, because that line starts on the other side of the border.

So by implication, Carson is advocating their deportation, right?

Most of the pro-amnesty advocates' plans are similarly contradictory, because their real intention is to do little to resolve the border issues.

Carson is no conservative and conservatives on FR have an obligation to expose this fraud. He has adopted just about all the positions of Hillary Clinton.
