From 9YearLurker-”Walker has repeatedly said that he’d legalize all illegals here and eventually make them citizens. He’s also said that he’d make it so easy for anyone from Mexico or any other country in the world to come here legally if they want to that they’d not have any incentive to cross the border illegally.”

Below is all from the Wausau Daily Herald, with video.
Daily Herald: The biggest split is about what to do with those 11 million or whatever it is. Can you envision a world where, with the right penalties and waiting periods and meet the requirements, where those people could get citizenship?
WALKER: Sure. Yeah. I mean, I think it makes sense.
“WALKER: If people want to come here and work hard in America, I don’t care whether they come from Mexico or Ireland or Germany or South Africa or anywhere else, I want ‘em here.”-—” Because if it wasn’t so cumbersome, if there wasn’t such a long wait, if it wasn’t so difficult to get in, you wouldn’t have the other problems that we have with people who don’t have legal status in the first place.
That seems to be, at least to me, what I hear in the national debate, largely overlooked. It all is about the 11 million — and I don’t know how we get that exact number because people, if they’re not here legally, I don’t know exactly how you figure out when it’s 11 million, or 25 million or whatever it is, but we’ve heard enough about it that it’s a real issue. But, like I said, I don’t know why — you hear some people talk about border security and a wall and all that. To me, I don’t know that you need any of that if you had a better, saner way to let people into the country in the first place.”
