I agree with him, and I think it should be taken further. I’m for deporting all muslims who come from a terrorist nation or anyone with ties to CAIR or any other organization that supports terrorism.

Paul proposes tough new immigration policies, including denying visas to Muslim students from terrorist states.

What stops the muslims from lying and claiming to be Christians? Lying is proscribed in Islam if it promotes the religion.

The proposal to deny visas based solely on religion could be construed as unconstitutional. Ron should understand that.

Also, ending the birthright is unconstitutional, we may need a CA for it. I do agree with both on principle.

Certainly worthy of discussion.

I don’t think a blanket yes or no policy is best, but how to decide who gets student visas and who doesn’t? Much of our tech industry is populated by foreign students who end up staying. How to just keep the troublemakers out?

Ron Paul may be nutty as a 10 dollar fruitcake, but he’s right on both these counts!

“..denying visas to Muslim students from terrorist states”

Denying visas AND entry to ANY Muslims makes more sense to me.

I agree with Ron Paul on this one.

I don’t know about this policy. First, I don’t think one could specifically ban Muslims, even assuming there were a way to acurately determine someone’s faith. I think you’d just have to end all visas to students from radical Muslim countries.

On the one hand, I think it’s a fine idea to keep radical Islamists out of our country. On the other hand, exposing the youth to Western society is one of the best ways possible to prevent radicalism and show them that we’re not a ‘’Great Satan’’ but an open and free society that can accept their culture as long as it doesn’t involve killing people.

I don’t know what the answer is, and I certainly don’t oppose at least a moratorium on visas for people from radical Muslim nations. But I would like to find a way to export our culture to the youth of those nations before they’ve been completely brainwashed by Wahabbism.

I’m guessing Paul probably doesn’t like in-state tuition for the Mohammedans either

I remember reading that 60% of our illegal alien population comes in via a visa. Paul is correct on this. We should also not be allowing 80,000 Muslims a year to immigrate here. Nothing against them personally, but this is not a wise decision by our government with a terror war going on.

OK... reasoned discussion ONLY, please.

You must have some serious mojo or something, as this is the first post I've seen in months that mention Ron Paul that didn't have people screaming in and frothing at the mouth with their bumper sticker slogans.

Say what you want about illegal immigrants, but, any terrorist that enters this country to do harm to us will have entered legally.

Deny mooselimbs VISAS? Are you CRAZY? how are the powers that be supposed to remind us that the none of the next terrorist attackers were illegal immigrants? And that they all came here LEGALLY? Like the last 19. If you think getting rid of illegal immigration is tough, just try and stop the legal kind.
