“And another difficulty is that any obviously Mexican or Central American individual is automatically assumed to be illegal. My experience with such folks has been about 90% positive, since the gangs and la Raza types are not around our area.”

La Raza types should be sent back south as soon as Trump becomes President if they are illegals. If they come back, label them as terrorists and ship them back.

The legal immigrants for the most part are good people, who add to the economy as our ancestors did when they immigrated legally to America.

“I thought blog “pimping” was when the item was excerpted and you had to go to the blog to read the rest.”

You beat me to it. I agree. He even posted it in the right forum (Bloggers & Personal).

Thanks:

“You are correct. One MUST get the dialogue rolling before action can be taken.

Trump has accomplished step one with no thanks to any other candidate. TDS’rs seem to conveniently forget this.”

The dialogue has been started by Trump. This dialogue needs be discussed by every candidate, senator and congressit.

While the discussions gear up, we can do what Ike did to slow down/stop the flow of illegals.

Oh no! He posted a blog entry (all of it) in the “Blogs and Personal” forum! Next thing you know, people will start posting breaking news in the Breaking News forum and religious content in the Religion Forum.

< /sarc>

I think part of the purpose of having the Blogs and Personal is encouraging people to write. When people criticize them for writing (rather than discussing the content or making constructive suggestions) it defeats the purpose. It also has its own forum so people who don’t want to read the work of amateurs can ignore it.

What Cruz said was right, The question is the left tactic of bringing up poor little children so they don’t have to address the issue.

Cruz was right in that there are multiple way to legislate the fix regardless of how you interpret the Constitution.

Both agree that the process of birth right citizenship should end.
Cruz has a history of being a fighter so he has to tone it down some for the election.
Trump is just the opposite, he has no history so he has to turn up the volume to act like he’s a fighter to get elected.

Anyone that thinks a specific candidate is not political during a campaign season is being duped.

go Cruz!

“Yup, Ziravan. Once a baby has the citizenship, by ex post facto alone, I don’t think American citizenship can be removed. But that doesn’t give the illegal alien parents citizenship. Maybe the threat of removing the baby from the parents and deporting them, if they did not return as a family to Mexicoy would make most of them decamp. But when the U.S. citizen child was an adult, that child could voluntarily return to the U.S. and his parents could then enter legally as parents and immediate family of an American child and eventually attain citizenship, as could any brothers and sisters born in Mexico after the family returned.”

Any effective closing of the border must also include changing and ending chain migration. In that we agree that any border solution is only a partial solution if it doesn’t address that issue.

Since all the freed slaves are now deceased, the amendment should be repealed.

Ah, a pretend supporter.
As in “for the sake of my vanity thread I will pretend to be a Cruz supporter.”
You do know that your blog and pro-Carly articles are visible go anyone curious enough to look, right?
You do understand how trollish that makes your “article” appear, right?

Ted Cruz is just another smarmy politician,

That's the title of the thread, not did Ted answer one question poorly.

I go on to Walker threads and deride those who through disinformation trash him, and I do it to those who go on Cruz threads to do the same.

It's destructive and stupid for these threads to spread bad information, I'm just pointing it out. Yes, it's okay to deride the author of a thread like this, he/she deserves it.

This article is spot on.

Trump is the only one that is not owned by rich donors.

Go Trump!

All politicians are looking to advance their political careers and are owned by rich donors

So now chain migration is in the 14th too?

"Since all the freed slaves are now deceased, the amendment should be repealed."

That would certainly solve a lot of problems, resulting from the antithetical premises of the "14th" to those of the original Constitution.

Indeed, and her relentlessness in asking this question shows she is in Jeb’s pro-illegal track on immigration.

But since this writer is withdrawing his support from Ted Cruz I have no option but to abandon Ted Cruz as well.I can't wait to find out who he is going to support so I can too.

LOL, yea, ain't it the truth.

Time to dump this Cruz guy because some anonymous (concern trolling) poster on FR (with his own blog, who is supporting Carly Fiona) has stated emphatically that "Ted Cruz is just another smarmy politician".

Sooo, so long Mr. Cruz, I'm heading over to settle in at Carly's tent.

But, I'll keep my bags packed because I'm sure it won't be long until I see the concern troll's future post about why he is dumping her.

My, my, it's so tiring being a Low Information Voter and trying to keep up and follow along behind all these "really, really smart" blog-owning, concern-trolling posters on FR, isn't it.

All politicians are looking to advance their political careers and are owned by rich donors.

The solution is relatively simple, if we have the cojones to enforce it. Term limits will practically eliminate the career politician. The cream will rise to the top; the best will serve two terms in the house, two in the senate, two as VP and/or POTUS. The rest will serve and go home with a nice resume enhancement. The key word is SERVE. They have morphed into masters!

And all political donations should be anonymous. You can not sell influence if you don't know who is buying. An individual or business should be able to donate all they want to any party or candidate; that is FREEDOM. In the competition for funding candidates would be forced to take positions publicly on a wide range of issues. Lobbyists could still lobby, but without the quid pro quo (bribery) that is common now.

Make it a felony to disclose who a donor is, or to attempt to discover who a donor is. A few lobbyists and officeholders marched off to prison should ice the cake.
