Ted was kind, respectful and firm. He empathized and instructed her on the rule of law. In short Cruz hit it out of the park.

If my father stole a pickup truck and gave it to me, would it legally be my pickup truck?

If someone’s parents break the law the child is placed in foster care in a country of their parent’s citizenship.

CASE CLOSED.

So if your parents both robbed a bank after you were born and they finally caught them after 15 years they would put you in a foster home.

Something similar should happen to “dreamers”

DREAM act

Acts are actions of congress. It was an executive order.

He was polite and elegant, but a simple "YES" would have worked too.

-— “I would note, if you’re a DACA recipient it means that you were brought here illegally, and violating the laws has consequences,” Cruz told the woman. “And one of the problems with our broken immigration system is that it is creating human tragedies and there are human tragedies when people break the law.” -—

Right. When we send a father to jail, a child will not have a father. Crime has consequences.

Ofelia Valdez, 30, Immigrant youth?

Interesting. When I was 30 no one ever called me a youth. But then that was back in another century.

“While Valdez’ question invoked many emotions, Cruz did not concede that immigrants should be allowed to stay in the U.S. illegally, noting that deportation is a consequence of a “broken immigration system.””

There it is. “Broken immigration system”???

Why not try “unenforced immigration system”!!!

Liberal talking points still live in Cruz’s head, crowding out his consistent conservatism.

almost ok.

the correct answer:

yes. your parents immorally broke the law to willfully steal the birthright of American citizenship that many generations American citizens and legal immigrants fought and bled to establish for themselves and their posterity.

so, you need to “get yourself right and clean” by making your life here morally legitimate. so do what you have to do get in the legal line and becoming a citizen responsibly by following our sacred law. otherwise, there will be cloud of immorality and failure hanging over you, your children, and your children’s children.

I would deport her and send her parents to prison for 3 to 5 years...then I would deport the parents and send a bill to Mexico for what all this screwing around has cost our country.

Yes, I am heartless.
