Newt also said NO citizenship for those few he would allow to stay.
Also said he supports ONE aspect of the dream act, namely, that those brought here as children through no choice of their own, could have a path to citizenship by serving in the militarty.
Flame on, but I agree.
“Newt also said NO citizenship for those few he would allow to stay.”
It isn’t just a few, my FRiend. You are deceiving yourself. There are millions of them. Newt has always been for amnesty, way back when Reagan first did his amnesty. Newt was for that too, and he is still of the same mindset. Don’t fool yourself or others about Newt.
How does not allowing them to become citizens change anything?
That means very little in a practical sense. In some areas that status would allow them to vote in local elections. You better believe it would become SOP.
I like Newt. It was tough watching him also step in it. I know someday we will have to pragmatically deal with those that will not leave on their own. But Perry is right about one thing. Without securing the border, and I might add defining birthright citizenship, it's a waste of time to talk about who gets to stay.
