".......This development, perhaps one of if not the biggest of the 2016 presidential campaign so far, comes as Walker has taken a commanding lead in polls in all three of the first GOP primary states: Iowa, New Hampshire, and South Carolina.
The reason why this development is so significant is that the two establishment-backed candidates, Sen. Marco Rubio (R-FL) and former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush, both have an in-depth understanding of the immigration issue and come down on the side that supports special interests’ desire for a massive increase in legal immigration that hurts American workers.
Meanwhile, Sens. Ted Cruz (R-TX) and Rand Paul (R-KY)—who like Walker make up the more grassroots conservative side of the field—don’t really weigh in on the legal side of the immigration issue. So as Walker continues to gain traction as a potential candidate, and readies himself for a launch, it’s quite clear he’s making a significant effort to learn what he now clearly understands is one of the most under-appreciated angles of the jagged razor-edge issue of immigration—the angle that polling shows can help him clear the GOP field and easily eliminate Rubio and Bush, whose pro-open borders positions stand against American workers....."
There is no political candidate who is going to have it all perfect coming right out of the gate. We might as well confess that this is as obvious as it is that the ocean is wet. Even Reagan did not do all policy right and such problems were masked perhaps more than was wise by his charm.
One who will listen like Walker (and I believe it will also prove true of Cruz) will gain in the contest.
I’m so impressed by a guy that didn’t realize we had an immigration problem until a few weeks ago.
Wow, are we lucky or what?
Walker has done nothing to help illegal immigrants nor immigrants. so some poster is just trying to smear Scott Walker who has passed more pro American and conservative laws than ANYONE. Walker’s record shows who he is and that he does what he says he will do. Walker’s record shows he is Pro American and that is to be trusted to do what he said he will do and now he says that he will reduce legal immigration something that no one else is saying. some of these posters want us to think that Walker is an anti American liar that will put foreigners over Americans. I believe Walker not these propaganda artists.

Thanks!
Thanks Cincinatus' Wife
If Rick Santorum got 56 votes and Ted Cruz got 58 votes, I totally question the validity of Walker getting 91 votes.
CRUZ - ALL THE WAY IN PA!
Scott Walker wins Pennsylvania GOP straw poll by wide margin.
