Throwing in the towel and accepting amnesty is pretty damned stupid. Apparently the phrase "don't give up without a fight" means nothing to some. I plan to fight any and all who try to impose an unwanted amnesty, and that includes ALL Republicans. Shame not all "conservatives" feel the same way.
Amnesty is going to happen like it or not....it's already out the gate and running
I have listened to speeches from every GOP candidate declared or not in the top 20. I have not heard one word of any kind stating that they want to stop amnesty. Not one. I have heard common sense approaches to fixing the problem, but no one has said send all 12 million back to where they came from.
If that is what some of the people on this board are waiting for, then no candidate is going to make them happy, and Hillary will be president.
What I am waiting to hear, before any discussion of what to do with the ones that are here, is how to stop more from coming. I want to here one candidate say “We are going to lock the southern border like a bank vault.
Rick Perry came close to that today in his speech, so his value came up. Also found out in 2008 he was coming off back surgery, and still pretty heavily medicated. He himself says he shouldn’t have taken on the campaign under those circumstances. I’ll give him a pass on the goofs.
I also believe you never quit learning. Rubio said today the reason he walked back his stance on immigration was he heard from the American people who said fix one issue at a time. First is secure the border, period. If he’s being truthful, and I have no reason not to believe him, it means he hears us.
I like Cruz, and Paul, but I haven’t heard either one say anything about stopping the flood of criminals (terrorists) coming across the southern border. Until I do...my attitude is we’ll see. It’s still too early to get apoplectic about any of them yet (except Trump, I hope he trips going to the podium and breaks his jaw so he can’t announce. ;) )
