isn't that what Trump is saying? Rhetorical of course.

For years politicians mention it in speeches and it gets mentioned on the news for a second but soon forgotten. Sticking your head in the sand won't make it go away. If anything, he's brought the issue to the forefront. He said it in a way for people to actually stand up and listen. How refreshing is that?

I like when people are real and say what they feel. These days though if you do that, you're labeled a racist which is unfortunate.

I think that by making statements that divide, while lacking serious substance, he's made the attention all about him, and not about the real issue of the border. He's not in it for the money, but I believe he loves the attention, and loves the idea of having political power.

more than ever, politicians say just enough of what the masses to hear but not too much to offend the people that pay for their campaign.

I know this might be a crazy fucking idea but why don't Mexicans make a country where people are not so desperate to leave?

But I am sure I will get the typical reply of it's all Imperialist USA's fault.

You wont get any argument from me there, they should. That doesn't mean America should close their doors to people looking for a better life here. There's a lot of apathy and despair there, people feel hopeless down there, but feel like they actually have a shot at making it here.

Pretty similar to every comment our president has made about race? Like those statements?

Why not Trump, it's a circus act now to be Pres

The more the merrier, as far as I'm concerned. Just makes Rand Paul's chances of winning better.

no one is saying close any doors. They have fences/walls in places now but they are a joke. What's the solution? Do nothing? Or let them immigrate legally and become citizens?

I'm not a democrat or fan of Obama. Registered Republican here, and have been my entire life.

We have a real problem on our Southern Border. Some is a U.S. problem and some is a Mexico problem. Ignoring the problem doesn't solve anything.




We need a huge wall up in the south along the border, but unfortunately the people behind the scenes are bought & paid for, & there's a agenda to screw up our country on purpose.

You guys will go to war with China and Russia if Trump gets elected, I can only imagine Trump telling "you are fired!" to Putin at a NATO convention.

Rand Paul is the best option. Dont even need to analyze it that much.

Trump along with Paul would be one of the last candidates to contemplate war with Russia oe China, where
did you ever get an idea like that? Graham, Rubio you should worry about if your fearful of that.

By the way, Trump has exposed the system of power in the US. The politicians fear the media/press labeling
them racist, or any other PC hogwash, and destroy them as they are attempting to do with Trump. Now we
have a bunch of spineless leaders that ignore the obvious out of fear of the press.. I thank Trump for
throwing it back in their face.

Trump said racist stuff, and is a hypocrite, same as Sharpton does. If you criticize one for it, and you should, then you should criticize both for it. If it's taken as rhetoric for one, and it shouldn't be taken as what he meant, then it's rhetorical for the other. They are 2 sides to the same coin, and you only let one get a pass if you agree with their POV.

Comparing Don Trump to Sharpton is like comparing Peyton Manning to Geno Smith.

Nope, it's like comparing Jimmy Claussen to Geno Smith. Ain't no Peyton's there. 2 current Bottom feeding bums, although, to be fair, Geno "may" have a smidgen of a future.
