Immigration Protesters Disrupt Jeb’s Campaign Announcement
Mediaite ^ | 6/15/15 | Matt Wilstein

Just as Jeb Bush was introducing his mother, former First Lady Barbara Bush, to the large crowd gathered in Miami for his official 2016 Republican presidential campaign announcement, a row of protesters rose from their seats to deliver a message spelled out across their brightly-colored shirts: “Legal Status Is Not Enough.”

Bush, who has been more compassionate to undocumented immigrants than any of his fellow Republican candidates, stood silently for a few moments watching the demonstrators before going off script to address them. “By the way, just so that our friends know, the next president of the United States will pass meaningful immigration reform, so that that will be solved — not by executive order!”

Lesson #1 about pandering to the Left, Jeb: no matter how nasty you act to conservatives on this issue, the open borders crowd will still hate you.

I suspect a disruption organized by Democrats who don’t want Jeb to get credit for being an Amnesty supporter with Pro-Illegal voters.

But so what, I don’t care if Democrats are roughing Jeb up.

If this were a General Election right now, the GOPe talking points for Talk Radio (El Rushbo etc.), Fox News, Washington Times and their other outlets would be “Bush under attack by Hillary’s Radical Leftist supporters”, “Lefties who support Illegal Immigration assault Jeb’s campaign appearance” and so on......

Well, gee, that blows my theory that the audience was campaign operatives, staff, volunteers and donors.

The way they all behaved screaming and rooting out of sync with the punch line.

Pre-planned stunt.

Cantor had one planned for his (supposed to be) victory party. He knew they were coming, that’s why he ditched out of there in such a hurry. Had he won, he had some pretty words to say about us all coming together to pass immigration reform.

Here’s American citizens idea of immigration reform:

ENFORCE THE LAWS!

Jebster,

We really don’t want our country turned into North Mexico.

Fraudulently documented foreigners are not immigrants.
They are illegal aliens.
Immigrants apply, wait their turn and comply with the laws.
Illegal aliens ignore all the laws.
