Republican presidential candidate John Kasich defended millions of immigrants in the U.S. illegally as "people who are contributing significantly" to the nation, taking on a divisive issue Wednesday as he promised to redefine conservatism during his latest New Hampshire appearance.

He quickly dismissed a questioner during an afternoon town hall-style meeting who suggested immigrants in the country illegally are a burden on the system.
"A lot of these people who are here are some of the hardest-working, God-fearing, family-oriented people you can ever meet," Kasich said to a smattering of polite applause.
Speaking later to reporters, he said he would complete the wall along the U.S.-Mexican border and would deport anyone who enters the country illegally once it's finished. He favors a pathway to legal status for such immigrants already in the country, and would not rule out a pathway to U.S. citizenship as part of an immigration reform package.
"It's not practical to move, or I don't even think desirable, to try to shift 12 million people out of this country," Kasich said. "These are people who are contributing significantly."

Seriously, I cannot fathom why these GOPe brainstems cannot seem to grasp where the voters are on this issue.
* millions of immigrants in the U.S. illegally as “people who are contributing significantly” to the nation *
By stealing our jobs and taking benefits that they are not entitled to.
By bringing us M-13 and other mentally and morally deficient gang thugs.
The “contributing” doesn’t seem quite right here...
I’m done with him since he mentioned on FOX that Trump is to blame with the violence at his rallies.
That statement alone should make anybody have second thoughts about supporting Kasich.
My thoughts exactly.
No way to rationalize it, dummy. Whose side are you on anyway?
SOB got over $200,000 from George Soros. THIS is the payback. These Establishment Goons just won’t stop.
Kasich condones and rewards illegal behavior. He should go to jail. That prick is enabling drug dealers, rapists, and murderers.
“...124 illegal aliens released by DHS in the last 5 years charged with murder...”
here are your contributors......
re: SOB got over $200,000 from George Soros. THIS is the payback. These Establishment Goons just won’t stop.
What is your source for that bit of info? I know Soros is involved with a lot of left wing groups, but are you saying he directly contributed to Kasich’s campaign?
How many Ohioans have lost their jobs to illegals and off shoring? They used to be the heart of manufacturing in this country. Yeah, they’ll vote Kasich.....................
