Walker (and others) join Trump, calling for ending birthright citizenship

[hopper]

I am noticing a bit of a realignment: a lot of the happiest posters here are Red avatars. Of course, no realistic Dem national candidate in his or her right mind  would be proposing any of this in the foreseable future. I really think it would be neat if these gentlemen were to find their natural home in the Republican party. If and when they switch, my respect for the Democratic party would, most definitely, substantially increase.

Of course, I am a Mexican

I think "The Left" cries as much as the hard-right cries when they don't get as much as they want of a specific policy that gets signs into law. Of course not all Dems on here are leftists. Some are Moderates too.

Of course no Dem would be proposing repealing the 14th amendment. Why would they? Most Latino's(including Mexicans) vote Dem anyway.

Today Walker evolved again, completing his flip flop...after being repeatedly pressed by George Stephanopoulos and trying to filibuster his way out of not talking about it, Walker finally said he was not for repealing the 14th amendment.

So that is his position for now, let's see where it goes next week.

Walker is turning into the "Upper Midwest Version" of Mitt Romney.

If banning birthright citizenship occurred, I'm pretty sure Rubio and Jindal wouldn't be citizens.

Well were at least one of Rubio and Jindal's parents here legally when they were born?

Except that Walker never tried to run to the left of Ted Kennedy.

True Walker was always a "Reform Conservative" mostly but in the last 6-9 months he is catering to the fringe of the party on some issues like flip flopping on immigration and his position on abortion rights is extreme. I am pro-life but with exceptions of rape, incest, and life of the mother.

It's only a matter of time before Trump proposes the 21st century version of the 1924 Immigration Act -and with every other GOP candidate falling in line when it proves wildly popular in the polls....  

Jeb Bush and Marco Rubio would have a bit of a difficulty doing that. Because, unlike the others, they would, actually, understand what the Telemundo nightly news, etc., would have to say about it. A sustained campaign of that nature in the Anglo media for a year - and blacks would become the relatively less overwhelmingly democratic constituency, when compared to Hispanics. The anglos, like Walker or Cruz would not be aware till it, actually, hits them. But Jeb Bush and Marco Rubio actually speak Spanish.

lol at American policy being dictated by Telemundo.

I don't believe American Policy I being dictated by Telemundo. Latino's just watch Telemundo just to keep up with their culture because they have connections to their country of origin.
