He made the comments a day after former Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton, the front-runner for the Democratic nomination, accused Mr. Bush of flip-flopping on a pathway to citizenship.
“He doesn’t believe in a path to citizenship. If he did at one time, he no longer does,” Mrs. Clinton said during a rare interview with CNN.
Independent fact-checkers said Mrs. Clinton’s charge was mostly true, although she also has evolved on the issue.

Who wants a white Barack in the White House? Not me.
Should we call him Barack Bush or Jeb Obama?
If they are legalized in ANY way, even without citizenship, it will give them standing for a class action suit based on equal protection (and rights) under the law.
Our traitor USSC (6 of them) will give them citizenship if a case like that before them.
More like an infomercial
