Well, now I’ve heard everything.

Right a politician who is hypocritical, pretty rare right?

Dare I ask what those are?

The Libertarian position on borders would be a small force to keep immigration orderly, but if someone FROM ANYWHERE wants to come to the US and someone in the US wants to hire them, the immigrant is in. Why should government enforce artificial man made lines to restrict where someone can work? Paul on the other hand seems or claims to favor bigger government on that issue. I wonder what other issues he will become a big government type if elected?

So one must wonter, is Paul lying and will back off any worries about immigration and come up with his own plan to legalized people working in the US or he is hardly Libertarian on this issue. I wonder which it is?

This is one of the few areas that I disagree with Paul on as well. Birth citizenship is especailly radical, no other candidate supports this. Many Ron Paul supporters that I have met support him just because he is the strongest candidate against illegal immigration (even if he doesn't sometimes talk like it). However, you have to take the positives with the negatives regarding any candidate, and with Paul there are so many other positives.

Ron Paul does support a worker program, but every nation has a responsibilty and right to control its own borders.
