That's good. Chris Matthews asked stupid and unimportant questions all night long.
Whoever would be able to get that passed might even be worth to be President.
Great to know Brit Hume will be moderator. And even better that Duncan Hunter will be there.
Veterans to organize support for Hunter presidential campaign

Hunter not only was concerned about illegal immigrants, but he was the moving force behind building a fence to separate Mexico from the California border, said Mike Bradley, another veteran.

Border enforcement is one of Hunter’s major priorities. In 1988, he authored legislation making the military the lead agency in illegal drug interdiction and was successful in obtaining military units for building roads and fencing along the U.S. in California. Over 40 miles of fencing and border infrastructure are standing today. Additionally, he pushed through legislation in 1995 to authorize an additional 5,000 border patrol agents in response to the Clinton administration’s budget, which attempted to cut agency resources.
“They instantly cut down on drug smuggling, immigrant smuggling, illegal aliens - by 90 percent,” Bradley said. “The fence was designed with three rows, but Hunter said to build it with two rows and see how it works. They had no breeches.”
