    Re: 2016 Presidential Campaign

    Is this somewhat analogous, though small, to the Trump movement going on in Germany (opposition to bailouts and strong anti-immigration)? If so is it a good sign for the Trump definition of "right" in America?

    Anti-immigration is not a conservative position and Trump wanted the bailouts to pass. http://www.politifact.com/florida/st...bailout-club-/

    This guy is WRONG for America.

    I secretly hope if Trump wins the nomination he nominates Gary Busey as his VP. Now there's a combo I can get behind!

    Illegal immigration, I might could buy, but I can't think of anything more conservative than paving the way for hardworking people like my great-grandparents to come here and contribute while carving out a life for themselves and their progeny. If that's not a traditional American value, we need to shut things down.

    I used to manage a team of legal immigrants at a major chain when we lived in Louisville. They worked harder than anybody I've ever met while doing jobs NO ONE else would do. You know what they did when they got off work? They went to their second (or third) job. All the while, they sent money back home and raised their kids right. These people are conservatives with conservative values. We're "anti" them at our own peril. It makes about as much sense as nominating someone who's demonstrably not conservative and imagining that he's going to be some boon for conservatism.

    Saw a Cruz video on Facebook where he was pushing for a lot more H1B Visas to be issued to highly qualified foreigners because the average legal immigrant is an entrepreneur who employs 193 US citizens. Legal immigration is good for our economy. Illegal immigration is theft. They don't pay taxes but they do get healthcare at ERs that they can't afford, which drives up the cost of health care for citizens.

    It's theft we've invited with our porous border. Fix the border, then figure out what to do with those that are here. Until recently, Cruz wasn't for forced deportation on non-violent illegals. We don't have the intelligence or man-power to do that anyway. We need to get these folks paying taxes and out of the shadows. That's not a RINO position...it's a logical one.

    Heard 60% of illegals simply overstayed their Visas. Fixing that would be a great first step. Really only 40% are the ones here without an invite.

    Trump may be given the republican nomination, but he won't win it. He needs to double his winning percentage to have a shot at 1237 and he's extremely unlikely to do that.

    No, I won't be voting for Hillary. I also won't be voting for Trump.

    But Trump won't be the republican nominee.

    There are many drawbacks to that also. With many franchise businesses you will find many foreigners with the best territories giving US citizens less opportunity to get a franchise territory. There are several franchises that are dominated by foreigners that initially come to the US with H1B Visas. Yes they employ minimum wage workers and also a lot temp foreign workers. Would you rather have American citizen providing minimum wage jobs and pursuing the American Dream?
