He pissed me and a lot of other folks off when he dropped the shaming language on the immigration issue on those of us who actually want to see the laws enforced. Fortunately, he just dropped out of the race today.Jehuhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16483263667086303029noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1867127488416158679.post-42483785687193331692012-01-19T01:57:47.021-08:002012-01-19T01:57:47.021-08:00Has not Rick Perry come out in favor of the Bush-O...Has not Rick Perry come out in favor of the Bush-Obama-Gingrich Amnesty, too?

They give him points for birthright citizenship, which is one area where only he has a positive rating. On bullying states, pretty much only Gingrich is likely to do that (well, him and Obama). The Ron Paul of the 90s was considerably more solid, and was rated a lot better by NumbersUSA.Jehuhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16483263667086303029noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1867127488416158679.post-82575284789651973482012-01-18T02:42:54.272-08:002012-01-18T02:42:54.272-08:00This man has an 'F' on immigration?

Someone back there, behind the curtain, wants to influence the primary race and get a non-libertarian 'conservative' the nomination. They see Santorum's chance, and they have awarded him an 'A', hoping that buys him votes. Is that possible?<br /><br />Also, they give Ron Paul an 'F', which is a bit unfair, and again I would float the idea of political bias against libtertarianism as a possibility.<br /><br />Ron Paul is the only candidate who says he would work to end birthright-citizenship. Ron Paul clearly would not use the federal apparatus to bully Arizona (etc.) to repeal or severely curtail enforcement. He has repeatedly called for securing the border. And, significantly, Ron Paul would not start or continue wars or occupations that would lead to significant inflows of the conquered people ('imperial backwash'). Ron Paul looks to me like the best candidate on immigration, to me.Hailhttp://hailtoyou.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.com
