Agree wholeheartedly compared to the first two... not so sure about Romney. I have a good hunch that Thompson's position on illegals is no different than McCain's, Giuli's... or the president's.
Thompson also touched on immigration, stating the need for America to gain genuine control of her borders, suggesting that once that was accomplished, Americans would continue to embrace immigration as they always have, provided it's legal immigration and on a scale that fuels the economy, while not creating a potential disaster for social services...."
