The threat of terrorism is great and with today’s porous borders, someone could bring a biological weapon into our country or sneak a dirty bomb across unmanned portions of our borders.
When a law enforcement officer apprehends an illegal immigrant, it makes no sense to simply release that individual who has been breaking our laws with no threat of sanction or penalty.
I think that local school districts – not the federal government – should make the decision about how they teach science, biology, economics. I want my kids to be taught about evolution; I want my kids to be taught about other theories.
In fact, I remember when TV networks believed in the First Amendment. It is a messed up situation when Miley Cyrus gets a laugh, and Phil Robertson gets suspended.
We want the best things for our kids. We want the rules to be fair. If they work hard, get a great education, they should be able to join the middle class.

I know, to say that people should learn English, should learn American exceptionalism, shouldn’t come here to use our freedoms to undermine the freedoms we give to everybody. But there’s nothing wrong with saying people who want to come here should want to be Americans.
We need an equal opportunity society, one in which government does not see its job as picking winners and losers. Where do you go if you want special favors?
