Is there a single candidate who is supporting deportation?
Enforce the laws against hiring and the illegals go home the same way they got here. Self deportation.
It's not necessary to support deportation, per se.
Self-deportation due to not being able to work legally, especially after a crack-down on all employers (think prison for violations), and no access to any public benefit (SNAP, Disability, AFDC etc.)
Most would leave. And far fewer would attempt to come here.
Me ?
And I make the foreign countries foot the bill for them staying here, the cost of medical, the cost of social services, and the deportation bill.
If they bulk on it I cut off all foreign aid to those counties, null and voild all trade and treaties with those countries.

Romney got made fun of when he talked about self deportation. So I suppose the others know that that is a blunder.
Actually deporting the 40 million that are here is pretty unreasonable and costly. Why should we pay to remove them? As long as we take away the free handouts and their jobs, they will leave. The important thing is to take away the welfare and food stamps and free housing, and enforce existing laws punishing employers who hire them.
Oklahoma passed a really good anti-illegal immigration bill, one that was never overturned in the courts, and their illegals scurried into surrounding states. That was a very good example of how it could happen nationwide.
