"Kelly then cut in, “that doesn’t sound like an answer. Mr. Trump answered that question explicitly last night on ‘The O’Reilly Factor.’ Will you do so now?” Cruz stated, “Well, Megyn, what I’m doing is answering what I think Congress should do. What Congress should do, and I introduced legislation to do exactly this, triple the Border Patrol. Increase fourfold the fixed-wing and rotary-wing aircraft to monitor the border, put in place a strong biometic exit/entry system, because 40% of illegal immigration doesn’t come across the border, it’s visa overstays. Put in place a strong E-Verify system. And then this final piece is critical, actually have the federal government enforce the law.”

Ted Cruz is the epitome of the ineffectiveness of Congress. A subscriber to the PC culture. I am.beginning to believe the indeed he would better serve as a SCOTUS than POTUS due to his care and caution when addressing tough questions.

I think even better is no support at all. Not one penny to any illegal. No renting or owning home, no drivers license. No job. No hospital or any medical help at all. No banking. No getting welfare, HUD, education or anything else. No food stamps including churches and social agencies. No utilities hook ups at all. No car registration or purchases. No signs or anything in any language but english. Your child WILL NOT be allowed in any school in America until you become a citizen after you are from your home country.

What the non-ideological voter is going to hear is a direct question that was dodged, aka “just another politician”.

Wow, I thought Trump was getting a bit out of line attacking Megan Kelly again, but I guess not. That was a one-sided nasty exchange. There’re legitimate answers that are neither yes or no. Kelly just jumped the shark.

First time I ever saw Cruz look flustered during an interview. Kelly made him look really like a typical politician ducking and diving. He would not answer her question. Kelly’s mission is to clear the field for Bush. He should have been better prepared.

Yeah, he’s pretty slick, saying he would wait to see what he could get bipartisan support for, see what we could do, etc, etc., leaving himself lots of “outs.”

Same as it ever was.

Cruz favors legalization without citizenship. It is called amnesty. Of course he was evading the question. He says we should enforce the law, but he refuses to say that the illegal alien parents and their children should be sent out of the country to be repatriated.

A few points. Birthright citizenship has always been wrong he should of know that. Levin says congress is the decider on this he should know that. And last where in his plan to deal with aliens does he kick them off the government dole.

The actual answer Cruz should have said is, “The parents are here illegally. They get deported. If they choose to leave their American citizen children here, the children go into foster care until they’re 18. The parents are perfectly within their rights to remove the children back to the parents’ country. The children may then return to the US as any citizen is allowed to do.”
