Huckabee: I’ll never back down from saying we need a path to citizenship for DREAMers

“Does he get the scholarship and go on to college so that he can become perhaps a doctor, a lawyer, an accountant, a teacher?” Huckabee said. “Or do we say, ‘No son, you’re as far as you can go. You need to pick tomatoes.’ ”

False choice, Hucklechuckle.

In any other country, the parents have to go back, and the minor age kids go also.

Including Mexico and Guatemala.

Won’t ever consider working for that bumpkin.

Throw the progressives out of GOP

[EternalVigilance]

Too bad to see him disqualify himself, since he’s the only one who seems to have finally figured out that judicial supremacy is a destructive lie.

Stay out the Bushes!

Just heard a professional woman over at FOX say “F him!”

I thought she said "How could anyone EVER fff him???"

If he’s seriously this out of touch, he might as well not bother. Even if he’s playing spoiler, how many votes could he possibly siphon?

Pretty cocky for a third tier candidate.

[Roman_War_Criminal]

Just another idiot politician who sells out REAL Americans.

I’d rather vote for Pedro than him to be honest.

[SoConPubbie]

As the husband of a lady who is going through immigration the correct way, the only thing the government should be doing (if anything) is to allow DREAMer kids to get in line like everyone else with no penalty, unlike illegal alien adults, who should face a penalty for not following the law.

No, all of them should be deported. It's the law!

[Responsibility2nd]

Well Seek.

You sure started a knee-jerking party here. Everyone on board the “I Hate Huck” train? Good.

Now re-read this....

How many of the 20-30 Republican alternatives running for president actually disagree with him? Maybe Ted Cruz will, but I wouldn’t even bet on that. Everyone running, even the stalwart tea partiers, will want to make some concession on immigration to hopefully blunt the Democrats’ edge with Latino voters in 2016. Cruz can come out strong against amnesty for adults; he might even come out against citizenship for DREAMers. (He’ll certainly come out against chain migration for DREAM families, as will most everyone else.) But is he willing to oppose any form of legalization for DREAMers, knowing full well that once legalization is granted, citizenship will eventually follow?

_______________________________________________

What everyone fails to understand is that there WILL NOT BE any GOP candidates totally opposed to DREAM.

Not even (gasp!) Ted Cruz.

So. Lets just keep knee jerking here and stay home.

I despise Huckster...effin imbecile

Legality of Huckabee's Mexican consulate deal questioned Critics say Arkansas citizens, businesses financed office to draw illegal workers

"Financial inducements arranged by former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee to establish a Mexican consular office in Little Rock may have violated state law, according to an Arkansas attorney."

Is this true? How Huckabee destroyed hard drives in data purge just before his 2008 presidential bid "Mother Jones magazine, it has been revealed that the computer hard drives containing records from Huckabee’s tenure as Arkansas governor were erased and physically destroyed by his administration." Mother Jones magazine??

Good, then the conservative candidate will stand out from the crowd of surrender monkeys and the choice will be clear.

________________________________________________

And WHICH conservative will that be? The author points out that they ALL support some form of amnesty. Except Cruz - and he probably will throw his weight behind it too.

Then what are ya gonna do?

[Boogieman]

“Except Cruz - and he probably will throw his weight behind it too.”

Doubtful, he seems too smart to do that. He knows that being the conservative choice is his best path to victory, and if he goes for amnesty, he will be dismissed as just another RINO.

[Little Pig]

Yes, they should all be deported. My point was that I could accept allowing DREAM kids to “get in line” for legal immigration without penalty once they can independently do so, whereas I would impose a penalty of some kind (waiting period or outright ban) for adult illegals wanting to immigrate legally.

In other words, we wouldn’t hold their previous illegal alien status against underage illegals when they come to apply for legal immigration as adults, should they want to immigrate just like anyone else. Some 6yo whose parents dragged him in illegally shouldn’t be penalized later on if he wants to come in legally on his own, whereas an adult (and maybe older teens) who come in illegally on their own initiative and get thrown out would face restrictions if they ever wanted to come in through legal channels.

[Responsibility2nd]

Cruz is THE perfect spokesman for Amnesty.

His parents immigrated from Cuba, he’s Latino, he’ll bring MILLIONS of Latino votes into the mix. All he has to do is follow the crowd here.

FWIW, I’m on record now of stating Cruz will support some amnesty plan.

It won’t be a broad “let ‘em all in” plan, it’ll be more restrictive than any democrat plan; but it’ll pro-amnesty (as we FReepers define it) anyway.

[Iron Munro]

My guess is Huckabee will not be a factor in the upcoming primaries.

He should challenge Hitlary! in the One-World/Socialist/Communist primaries.
