Walker admitted he had changed his position regarding illegal immigration.

In 2013, he was for comprehensive immigration. On FoxNews Sunday, he said he had changed his mind and is now against comprehensive immigration.

He said ‘first, we need to secure the southern border.’

That ‘secure the border’ canard is raised again.

Is Walker sincere or just telling conservatives what they want to hear? If he is not sincere, that narrows the field of contenders down to about one who opposes amnesty.

Heck, even McCain, Graham, Romney, jBush, and most of the other wannabes have used the ‘secure the border’ canard.

If Walker were elected President, I’m sure that VP Cruz would keep Walker in line regarding amnesty to illegals.

Congressman Bohnerbootlick “Let's legalize the people who are here now with chain migration rights because we want to be fair and we can't deport them anyway. We then will authorize studies on securing the border. Once we access the facts future Congresses can apply the best solution to resolving the border situation.”

If Walker supported sanctuary cities or giving benefits such as in-state tuition and driver's licenses to illegals, then I'd be up in arms.

However, he did none of those things and never signed any pro-illegal legislation.

His coming out against amnesty (which he was never in support of) and securing the border first is a smart move and reflects the reality of the issue among the American people.

At this point I believe Walker has "seen the light" as far as amnesty and the borders. Some of his comments were quite strong.

Jeb is a "true believer," a fanatic when it comes to amnesty, somebody who is perhaps manipulated by his wife or other foreign interests. Anyone with at least average intelligence can see the extensive harm amnesty would cause.

The best position is held by Ted Cruz, my first choice for POTUS.
