Plus, where you gonna send them?

Wouldn't it make the most sense to send them to the country that they came from, as opposed to anywhere else, Doc?

"It sounds really cool, you know, 'Let's just round them all up and send them back,'" Carson said. "People who say that have no idea what that would entail in terms of our legal system, the costs - forget about it.

So Carson gives us the same canard as the rest of the GOP, i.e. "you can't possibly round them all up and send them home, so [by implication] we shouldn't even try." It's support for amnesty in an underhanded, roundabout way, i.e. "well, I'd like to do something about it, but we can't, so we won't." By the same logic, we should never arrest thieves, because the logistics of catching them all is also prohibitively expensive.

IIRC Ben wrote one or two OP EDs a year plus back that got me pretty convinced I’d never vote for him. They basically were “you gotta vote for the second most evil” candidate stuff about sticking with the party no matter who they nominate. Nope, nuh unh.....

Ben Carson is just another Yeb! but with some religion and points for being black. He must have picked up some wealthy donors? And he is catering to them.
