I don't care for Gonzales and I'm very disappointed in Bush with respect to Mexico.
I'm for immigration restrictions, including deportation of all illegals and make them apply for legal visas just like everyone else.
That being said, like Buchanan, I'm afraid that Tancredo is the wrong messenger. We need another Reagan, not a Goldwater, in order to win.
But I'll back a bad messenger over a wrong message. I voted for Keyes in 2000 primary(although I had a higher respect for him then than I do now after his carpetbagging to Illinois).
It all depends on who runs. Some I can't vote for under any circumstance whatsoever.(McCain, Rudy, Pataki)
Yes, I agree that a Tancredo/Buchanan or a Buchanan/Tancredo team is a winning team.
They're both true-and-tried patriotic conservatives that, I'm sure, could put an end to the open floodgates and to the American invasion by hordes of 3rd world illegal/legal aliens.
Reagan wasn't for a new Berlin wall on the southern border.
Allow free movement of people from Mexico & Canada Reagan himself was a dreamer, capable of imagining a world without trade barriers. In announcing his presidential candidacy in Nov. 1979, he had proposed a North American accord in which commerce & people would move freely across the borders of Canada & Mexico. This idea, largely overlooked or dismissed as a campaign gimmick in the US, rankled nationalist sensibilities in the neighboring nations. But Reagan was serious in his proposal. Though he traveled only once outside the North American continent during his first 57 years, he was neither insular nor isolationist. California has windows to the world in Asia, and Reagan thought of the US as a Pacific power as well as an Atlantic one. He also had a Californians consciousness of Mexico and an actors appreciation of Canadians, who are well-represented in the film community. The dream of a North American accord would drive the successful pursuit of a US-Canadian free trade agreement and a future-oriented framework trade agreement with Mexico Source: The Role of a Lifetime, by Lou Cannon, p. 461 Jul 2, 1991
