Default Re: Senators Challenge Pres. Obama on Rumors of Executive Order Amnesty

No matter whose watch it's under:

Quote:
Here’s something you seldom hear in a Republican primary: a candidate taking issue with Ronald Reagan.

It happened this afternoon when former Florida House Speaker Marco Rubio, who’s running in the GOP Senate primary against Gov. Charlie Crist, answered a question on immigration at a Martin County Republican Womens Federated meeting that drew more than 100 attendees.

Quote:
“In 1986 Ronald Reagan granted amnesty to 3 million people,” Rubio said. “You know what happened, in addition to becoming 11 million a decade later? There were people trying to enter the country legally, who had done the paperwork, who were here legally, who were going through the process, who claimed, all of a sudden, ‘No, no no no , I’m illegal.’ Because it was easier to do the amnesty program than it was to do the legal process.”
Rubio: Reagan erred in supporting 1986 amnesty for illegal immigrants | Post on Politics
“If you grant amnesty, the message that you’re sending is that if you come in this country and stay here long enough, we will let you stay. And no one will ever come through the legal process if you do that.”
or how they go about it, the people do not want it. And we don't want it because there are legals having a hard time getting a job right now. As well as the fact we're tired of feeding the world. Time to take care of ourselves a little more.
