I’m not that concerned about that issue, because our borders really aren’t that open - unless you count the airports, through which most of our initially legal immigrants arrive. I’m concerned about the huge numbers of African and Middle Eastern Muslims Obama has LEGALLY admitted to this country, actually taking away from the Latin American quota and thereby making more Latin Americans illegal. The 40% of visa-overstayers he mentioned are in their majority Africans, Middle Easterners, Russians and Chinese, partly because Latin Americans simply can’t even get visas, even if they wanted to overstay them. I read somewhere (can’t cite it, sorry) that the Chinese are the largest number of these.

However, my point was that Jeb Bush, like all the other GOP-e potential candidates, doesn’t just fail on one issue, but on his whole outlook, which is “the more government the better.”

If I had to say that there was one common viewpoint or theme in the GOP-e candidates, it would be love for government and the desire to extend and expand government. That’s the true dream of every “progressive.”
