We have found another Reagan.It is Mike Pence of Indiana.It is up to us to spread the word and support Pence and allow his wing of the party to take over.

"Mike is charismatic. He's articulate, but he's not shrill or mean the way some conservatives can be," said Stephen Moore, former president of the Club for Growth, a conservative political action committee. "I think a lot of us are looking around and saying, 'Who is the next great conservative hero? Where is the next Ronald Reagan in our party?' The Committee has 100 members now. That's a high water mark. So it means that all legislation that passes Congress is going to have go through Mike Pence." ...... Pence has shown that he is not afraid to take unpopular stands. In the last Congress, he defied Bush, spearheading Republican opposition to the drug benefit that Bush wanted and speaking against the president's education initiative, No Child Left Behind Act.

"I was concerned that the ship of conservative governance was veering off course into the dangerous uncharted waters of big government Republicanism," Pence said. "

President Ronald Reagan signed real amnesty(i.e citizenship) in 86.

Presiden Bush has not proposed or supported blanket amnesty, just bringing more order into an already chaotic system

Sens. Kyl/Cornyn have proposed a good bill, it will however get overshadowed by the McKennedy real amnesty bill by the liberal media.
