Ron Paul is the ONLY one of the Republicans you can take to the bank what he says!

Gomer, Rudy Mitt, will say ANYTHING to get your vote!

Ron Paul is the ONLY one with integrity. The media does not seem to support him so that is a good sign!

Actually Ron Paul has not touted deportation so much as he talks about de-incentivizing their stay, ie stop federal funding to illegals with social security benefits, tuition, schooling, medical care, welfare/food stamps, divers licenses etc.

@roughwaytogo then let him say "Illegals will be deported" and he has my vote! Until they he is unelectable. There are way too many American Citizens jobless that the illegals hold & are protected by our government! Reagan started this whole "It's ok to break into our country, we'll give you amnesty if you hide long enough." The people said NO then & they are incensed now to see it happen again and they have no job! All they have to do is Enforce the Immigration laws! No rewards for criminals!

I would like to hear Ron Paul say "If I am elected the States will enforce the laws of immigration & the illegal immigrants here will be deported." Until illegals are deported, given no incentives & freebies they take advantage of, not hired unless via a work visa, no families brought here, then maybe we will get a handle on this. Until then the American Worker is out of a job because of corporations that hire illegals. If you like being jobless do nothing otherwise make your voice be heard!

Ron Paul is simply an idiot on immigration. A Libertarian true believer that insists against 5,000 years of history that all the people in the world are inter changeable and everything is about "economics". Ron Paul will easily fall back in to complete open borders immigration Libertarian orthodoxy. It's ust the case that American voters are incensed over the immigration dissaster, so Ron Paul has to make comments to reasure the GOP voters that he isn't insane on immigration.

Sadly, Ron Paul wants even more H1Bs. If it were not for that, I would vote for him.

What is his chances of becoming President? answer slim to none. The media is already centering their attention on Romney and Perry, and although this is being Bias, its happening.

@Brakeman94 Can we do it?

[Brakeman94]

@anyusmoon1 Exactly. We so desperately need Ron Paul right now...although I don't agree 100% with all his ideas, he is still the most brilliant candidate I have seen in forever.

@Brakeman94 Ha! I agree brakeman but only because the crooks already took the money for the fence (via appropriations) but then didn't build it! What happened to the money?
