I want to know the thought process of someone who wants to win the GOP nomination and presidency who:
1. Calls illegal immigration an "act of love"
2. Supports common core
3. Says he is willing to lose the primary to win the general (this never made sense)
4. Has the last name Bush
I am serious I want to know the logic that goes in one's mind leads one to believe they can win based on the above.
I suspect that he was thinking something such as, "What a bunch of retarded, useless clowns. I can win the nomination easily!" He was half-right, but failed to realize how much the party's vocal base had shifted in the directions of "hate" and "stupid".
because "hate" is when you think illegal immigration is ILLEGAL versus an act of love.
I am not a believer that we should reward illegal behavior. But in many cases, perhaps in most, those who come here illegally do so as an act of love to ensure their children have better lives than they have. Bush was not advocating for a specific policy based on the fact that in his view, which is also my view, people who come here illegally do so out of an act of love. Yet the tea party crazies, the people who don't read, believed he was advocating for amnesty. I support a pathway to legal status because we need to balance out humanitarian interests, the rule of law, and the fiscal realities of our time. Deporting people to live amongst gangs and spending $140 billion doing so is not right, though neither is giving automatic forgiveness to people who break our laws. The pathway to legal status is the middle road here.
A "pathway to citizenship" is AMNESTY its the exact same thing. Your just calling it a different name thats like calling murder something else. The fact is if you come here illegally you need to be KICKED out. And the amount of money illegals cost us is far more than it would take to ENFORCE the law. Jeb is just a typical pro-open borders establishment Republican like his big bro.
The other problem is legal immigration, which we should ban for at least ten years.
