that would secure our borders and send people back to their own countries and not support amnesty. I am a Republican but would support any candidate who would do this. My question is this, are there others that would vote cross party to achieve this goal?

It is so frustrating because as a life long Southern Californian taxpayer, I have watched for 6 long years as George Bush has done absolutley nothing to guard our borders. At the same time, he has encouraged people to stream into our country and cause unimaginable burdons on the taxpayers and hospitals. I think Bush is probably the worst president since Carter and I voted for Bush twice. I could not stomach Gore or especially Kerry.

Jack I almost disagree with you on this issue. I would almost certanley vote for the candidate who will do this regardless of their positions on any other issue-probably. I do not like socialism which the Dems stand for but could take a moderate one because this issue is so important.

Absolutely! The only reason I am registered anything is to participate in local primaries. I doubt that it is logistically possible to deport 12 million illegals, but we could prosecute those who hire them. Eventually, they would go home themselves w/o jobs to support them. We would have to change the constitution to disallow illegal babies born here to be citizens. Apparently, it would take an act of congress(ha ha) to do that.

I don't claim party affiliation because I do not trust either party. However, I trust the democrats less because I believe they want to move this country towards socialism and socialism always is a failure. Lately (The past 10 years) the democrats have gone way off the deep end in their hate speech and unjustified claims that have served to worsen the divide between people. It sounds much like the old clansmen or the witch burners of our ancient history. I don't want that type of people running this or any other country.
If you were to show me a republican that demonstrates they will not bring religion into it, will not support amnesty and will protect individual rights while keeping their word, I MIGHT consider voting for them. I haven't seen one of those yet and don't believe there is any such thing though.
The way things stand today, I would sooner vote for Daffy Duck than any one of the potential major party candidates. There are a few that I would vote for almost anybody to keep them out of office but hopefully they will not get the nomination. Haven't had time to look into third party candidates yet so have no opinion of them.

Thank god. SCREW political parties, they do no good for the country and our founding fathers preached very hard against them. Democrat, Republican, whatever, a politician should do what is best for their constituents and what they believe to be right, not what some corrupt, over paid jack*ss (or elephant) tells them.
Unfortunetly, each party has their own advantages and dissadvantages.
Would you be willing to vote for a candidate who would do that but would also take us to war with North Korea and Iran, outlaw abortions, institute a national religion, raise your taxes, and outlaw guns?
I'm not about to pick a candidate because of their stance on a single issue, it really is about picking the lesser of two evils, party affiliation be damned.

From the responses here I wonder why we don't get better people elected. I like several of these and would have written almost verbatim as Jack did. I hope you chose his answer as best although most all are very good. If only the entire electorate would simply 'think' before voting. But most of them are sheep in the slaughtering pens.
"Here's to us and those like us, damn few,"............ the rest of the toast is "and most of them dead." I reserve that for toasting with other combat veterans. If any of you are That is added automatically.

events have ideologies and policies and what the government does relies upon on which occasion holds skill. President does no longer run the county by skill of himself yet he brings over a one thousand political appointees into workplace with him, so which you're picking between events once you vote. given which you do no longer care strongly approximately or are chop up on subject concerns, does the indoors maximum high quality of the applicants substitute into greater significant.

I'll vote for whoever I think is the best candidate for the job. I don't care what party they belong to. Anyone who votes a straight party line is just stupid.

Who in their right mind wouldn't? I always have done that regardless.
