Do a little research on “Operation Wetback” during the 50’s and you will see the results that even a comparatively modest mass deportation drive can have. If we began seriously enforcing, millions would self-deport. It’s been done before. The only people I hear talking about sending them all home at once are amnesty supporters setting up a very weak straw man.
For the most part, all candidates except Bachmann have essentially the same position on illegal immigration, and Bachmann is walking dead.
1. No deportation of most illegals
2. Some legal documentation to get illegals on the record.
3. Border security.
4. Non-return paths to citizenship.
That’s as good as it going to get.

Well, the ONE tonight who went a bit further, however, was CAIN who said to return the power to the States to enforce the laws. So far . . . that is about the best policy we have seen that really works - and to enforce the laws we already have.
Self deportation would happen in a second if all we did was stop welfare handouts to them.
I STILL have no idea WHY or HOW they get welfare. WHO rationalizes this or started them on it in the first place in such large numbers?
