What? I think your attitude of kowtowing and appeasing is why we've lost elections.
I'm a realist. The border has not been secured...in any way, shape or form. That's a fact. Any attempt to ever do so has been met with - from BOTH sides - attacks of racism, cost prohibitive, etc.
My wanting the current immigration laws enforced..and NOT what Paul is recycling, er, proposing...is NOT what got Willard on the ticket. Attitudes like yours ARE the reason we got Willard and, subsequently, lost elections.
Which, if you actually read what Rand said is exactly what he's purposing. Along with cutting off the current flow of bennies to illegals and stopping the influx by beefing up border security.
I stand corrected, not just your attitude... But your willful IGNORANCE is why we lose elections.
