Everything else is just noise.

Donald Trump is now the super-hawk on immigration. It wasn’t always so, and not so long ago. A Newsmax article from November 2012 on his views on what went wrong in the election is making the rounds. Back then, Trump’s view on immigration was utterly conventional–he wanted a “comprehensive solution” to accommodate immigrants who want to be “wonderful productive citizens,” and thought Romney’s policy of attrition (infamously described as self-deportation) was “maniacal” and mean-spirited

that’s not what I read in the article......
Maybe Trump is evolving... in a positive direction.
Article schmarticle.
What do they know? :>)
I don’t have a candidate yet - it’s TOO EARLY. KEEP STUDYING THEM! Early knee-jerk reactions can kill us, and HAS.
But to answer your question, NO CANDIDATE SHOULD SAY RIGHT UP FRONT THAT THEY CAN STAY. It only encourages more illegal immigration.
Candidates should say SECURE THE BORDER FIRST, then let’s talk about the rest.
Trump is not to be trusted. His ridiculous and cowardly remarks about Pamela Geller's "Draw Mohammed" contest prove that.
True.
Everything else is just noise.
LET’S HERE IT THEN.
Who wants to send them all back? Sorry but Tancredo is NOT running.
So who? I-Carlie, perhaps?
Yes, it has.
It’s pretty obvious, Trump is in it to peel off support from Cruz.
Which is why Cruz is so careful not to condemn him and piss off his supporters.
But he may have jumped in too early, and he could be passe in another six months.
I care only about Americans. I could care less about “hispanics”.
Obama won 2012
Obama Admin works to get immigration reform
Okays dreamers
Hordes of so called “children” flooded across the border
Sanctuary Cities, Counties & States
Obama won’t enforce immigration laws
Black out on information about the horde of people
Many who brought infectious diseases or were gang
Members or really adults.
Obama sends memo to DHS not to enforce immigration law won’t
deport illegal foreigners who enter US or over stay VISA
Obama threatens to pass illegal amnesty with EO
Obama Admin handling of the Ebola epidemic-
won’t ban entry from counties with Ebola.
I am really surprised you asked this question. Aren’t you paying attention?
“Secure the border first and then lets have a conversation about what to do with those illegals already here.”
That is verbatim what Cruz has said.
Have you noticed that the Dems and their RINO allies insist that securing the border and “reform” are linked?
In other words, they say we cannot have one without the other. And they will insist on “reform” first.
And when we start talking `border security’ they shut down.
After they get reform (amnesty), border security will remain two rusty strands of barbed wire in busy crossing areas. That’s the way the amnesty crowd wants it.
Our uninvited foreign guests have been lurking in the shadows for 30 years now, so they can wait a little while longer while we get our salient problem, border security, addressed, don’t you think? I mean, they weren’t dragged here, kicking and screaming. They aren’t going anywhere.
We’re just waiting on the Democrats who want their votes and dues, the McCains, Bushes and the other venal RINO bastards, and miscellaneous special interest groups—US Chamber of Commerce, SEIU, Mexican Bund groups like La Raza, etc.—to step up, finally, and admit something thus far that they refuse to admit ...
America has an interest here as well.
If we do this again it will be for the last time or the shame next time will be on us and not them.
Probably. Though I wouldnt put it past him and the Clintons to have set this up as a precursor to a Perot-style "third party" run.
Illegal aliens murdering americans have NEVER gotten as much attention as this one got. the obvious reason, it's because of what trump said.
Yeah, I could see that too.
Why does everyone think that the number one issue among Americans of Hispanic descent is giving amnesty to the tens of millions of illegal aliens here?
Probably to position himself to the right of Perry on the issue.
He's since come out in favor of Amnesty.
Within 20 years, a Mexican passport will be the functional equivalent of a U.S. green card. In other words, national union of the two countries, and Game Over for America and Americans.
I see nothing in the trends that will stop this
