Tell you what South, I will concede that "path to citizenship" is a bad term and even misleading, it is accurate to say that the law requires them to be on a path to legal resident (which is possible for an illegal depending on their situation) and even that term is lose as there is really no way to enforce it other then them giving their word.

But I am curious, Herman Cain supported Mike Huckabee in 2008, he even donated money to Huckabee. Herman Cain said that he could not be on a ticket with Perry because Cain said while he hasn't,“totally gone through all of [Perry’s] positions, but a lot of positions I have questions with” including “being soft on the border, issues relative to tuition for children of illegal aliens.”

But, AR House Bill 1525 was sponsored by Huckabee and that would be considered pretty far left of what Texas passed.

Mr. Cain is going to have to explain that change of heart and not sound like he jumped on the "perry is soft on immigration" bandwagon because he saw the issue hurt him.

How will you, as a Cain supporter, justify his support of the Huckster?

Keep in mind that I'm not against a Cain Presidency either, I have reservations about another "learn on the job President" but I believe Cain can actually do it.

Oh it's more than that; given that ILLEGAL aliens cannot legally apply for citizenship it is entirely untrue.

Really? Got a link for that?

Speaking of endorsements, Perry was the only Republican governor to endorse pro-abortion, pro-gay, pro-ILLEGAL alien, anti-gun liberal cross-dressing freak Rudy Giuliani in 2008. How can you support a man who ignored Huckabee, ignored Duncan Hunter, ignored Tom Tancredo, ignored Fred Thompson and chose instead to endorse someone the likes of Rudy calling him, "The most Reagan-like candidate in the race"?

According to Rick Perry, this was the 'most Reagan-like candidate in the 2008 race'.
