BEN CARSON: BORDERS MUST BE SEALED TO KEEP TERRORISTS OUT; ILLEGALS SHOULD BE GIVEN PATH TO AMNESTY
Breitbart ^ | 9/2/15 | BREITBART NEWS

On Wednesday, Dr. Ben Carson said America’s borders must be sealed to protect against terrorism and told a prominent group of Latino elected officials that he also supports giving illegal immigrants a path to legalization and eventual citizenship.

Addressing the National Association of Latino Elected and Appointed Officials (NALEO) in Nevada, Carson said that “the reason that I think we need to seal our borders completely… all of our borders–north, south, east, and west–is not so much because I’m afraid of somebody from Honduras.”

“I’m afraid of someone from Syria who wants to bomb us, who wants to do bad things,” he said. “So that’s the main reason that we need to seal all of our borders.”

Carson said that “we do have an illegal immigration problem that would be solved if we sealed the borders and cease the benefits” so that “people wouldn’t see a reason to come here.”

Carson suggested that model be applied to “all the nations in this hemisphere… then everybody can be prosperous.” He said there needs to be a way to “share the wealth and still maintain our borders, our integrity,” and he suggested that the “influx” of illegal immigrants would come to a halt if Latin American nations become more prosperous.

We could take over these failed countries, then return their citizens, and give them a helping hand. Fix the problem so they stop coming here. Plus, deny them jobs and jail employers, deny them benefits, eliminate birthright citizenship.

Illegals, gun confiscation, black racism.

All reasons why I will never vote for Ben Carson.

If I want all of those things, I might as well elect Hillary.

And how does Carson know an illegal alien granted citizenship won’t be a terrorist?

No more squishes.

However we decide the status of people who entered the country in violation of federal law and who stay here in violation of federal law, we must NEVER grant them the right to vote.

Amnesty would destroy the USA.

that would add 30 million democrat voters which would turn the USA into a socialist state.

Carson's a flown blown idiot.Anyone that advocates for more immigrants of any kind is for the destruction of the USA and a traitor against America and against Freedom!

socialism is tyranny. this is what pro immigrant advocates are for tyranny and extreme poverty. no matter your excuse immigration is population is governance.

These stupid people need to read Ann Coulter's new book to get even a clue. get a clue

And the second he gets elected president, he’ll cave on “sealing the border”.
