Illegal immigrants are “a critical part of our society” and should be provided a route to amnesty, Republican presidential candidate John Kasich tells a coalition of Hispanic company executives.
“For those that are here that have been law abiding, God bless them,” he told the business group, which is a major advocate for expanded immigration.
“Then I think the [illegals] should have a path to legalization… I think that can pass,” Kasich said, using one of the euphemisms for granting legal residency to illegal immigrants.
The Ohio governor also claimed the illegal immigrants are skilled. The illegals “are a critical part of our society from doctors to engineers to lawyers– well, I don’t know if we need more of them [lawyers]– but we’ve got a lot of teachers, whatever,” he said.
Kasich also told the group that one of his top priorities is “expand[ing] the guest workers.”
Currently, the nation annually imports roughly 700,000 short-term guest-workers — plus 1 million legal immigrants, a few hundred thousand additional short-term workers and roughly 350,000 lower-skilled illegal workers — to compete for jobs against the roughly 4.5 million Americans who turn 18 each year.

ABOLISH WELFARE, and they will all go back home!
You are absolutely right - this guy is a total idiot.
I don't know how anyone can stand him.
Just the sound of his whining voice makes my skin crawl.
A Socialist Republican.
Oh my..talk about a desperate sling of mud against any and all walls...Sorry go back to Ohio and stay there......LOSER!
And you thought that there couldn’t possibly be a more annoying weasel than Jeb Bush.
Numb-Skull. How about, “God bless Americans”
Hugh Hewitt’s fave?
Normal people believe that eradicating criminals is the only reason for the government to exist.
Kasich believes that empowering criminals is the main function of government.
Kasich should therefore be charged with TREASON. The maximum penalty was intended for scum like him.
Why not bless the bank robbers, too? Certainly the embezzlers.
The boy has definitely flipped. The ‘RATS have a new ‘RAT.
Stick a fork in ‘im.
(In my best female sounding british accent)
“You are the weakest link, goodbye”
Where’s a picture of Kasich holding an “ass hat”?
Comments like these...and his Ohio residence....are why I still predict Kasich will be the veep choice. Not because I agree w Kasich, but because I believe the GOPe will demand Kasich.
No one, including Kasich, has a clue what he IS doing. What he isn't doing is running for President. No one seriously running would try this hard to lose.
Precisely right - Kasich is carrying the NWO/Globalist Pope’s water, never forget.
Is he any worse than Howard Metzenbaum?
Up yours, Kasick.
If Ohio had elected Ken Blackwell in 2006, this trash would not be Governor now.
