I don't know if some of you have watched the last debate which was orchestrated by Fox. Maria and the rest did a very splendid job on the questions and moderation.
Anyways, I am so impressed with the way Trump and Cruz addressed the immigration issue. When Cruz said, it is and economic issue (personal) and followed with the impact it does to our country specially in our economy.
I stand with Trump, I don't have anything against coming or going to any country. Just do it legally. Yet it is human nature to better our lives and in desperation, people do anything to have a good life, therefore it is in our policy that accounts our responsibility in protecting our borders. We must not completely blame and rely on the ethics of getting in legally, but must be with high conviction to prosecute and or deport illegals.
I am listening at the debate right now Draegon and I can't help but my respect and admiration on most of them but specially so for Trump and Cruz. They make sense. Together they will be able to respond positively to what we need at the moment to make our country better. Still listening and what a brilliant lay out of questions.
I just listened with Cruz and his logic on the immigration and for heaven sake, please people let us vote for him and I agree with you. Trump with Cruz..
I can live with that. Or even Rubio with Trump. Although you are right, after listening right now with Cruz, and or Rubio, either of them will make it an easy win. Trump with Cruz.
Hello there Felixis, thanks for joining in. Yes it originally started with our woman leader and during that time, I wasn't quite familiar with the inconsistencies Hillary has done in her career, and now the lies that is surmounting on questionable decisions she made.
I do agree with you, none of these two contenders will get my vote, that is for sure. I am now leaning towards Trump. But I am still not quite sure yet.
Chris, she has no business being a leader for committing such a very callous decision. To not being able to assess the future of her policy is simply stupid and not deserving to lead Germany and even more so for such a union like Europe.
Well Kaet, I read the whole article and it is a very informative if not absolutely a powerful eye opener for those who are ignorant like me about how women are treated in that part of the world.
She is a very brave woman and to defy death and completely be cut off from her own family, takes a lot of courage to do. What I don't understand is how can a father or a brother even stand to kill their own blood if only to follow such a religion or faith. I can definitely attribute that to ignorance Kaet.
Refugee crisis: Angela Merkel’s party unveils secret plan for 'Berlin Wall'-style defences on Germany’s borders
The initiative was the latest and potentially most damaging conservative assault on Ms Merkel’s refugee policies since the crisis began in late August tony paterson Berlin Tuesday 20 October 2015156 comments

Workers install seven-metre high fencing along the access route to the Eurotunnel in Coquelles to try and prevent migrants from attempting to cross the Channel to Britain. Angela Merkel's Christian Democrats are proposing a similar style defence on Germany’s borders AFP/Getty Chancellor Angela Merkel faced the prospect of major opposition to her open door refugee policy from her own Christian Democrats after a majority of her party’s MPs launched a parliamentary initiative proposing “Berlin Wall”-style defences on Germany’s borders.
Details of the Christian Democrats’ so-called “secret plan” to stem the current 10,000 a day influx of migrants into Germany were published in the mass circulation Bild newspaper which said that the initiative was supported by 188 of Ms Merkel’s 310 parliamentary party MPs.

Ms Merkel has so far rejected all demands for new border fences.
“We must stop the influx of refugees. There should be no taboos about taking another look at our border fortifications,” Christian von Stetten, the conservative MP leading the initiative told Bild. He said the plan would be voted on in a fortnight’s time.
I realize it is never going to be an easy task for her to correct her astronomical blunder, but wouldn't have it been better if she has established first who was who?
Refugee crisis: Angela Merkel signals deportation of economic migrants from Germany as EC President Jean-Claude Juncker calls for migration summit

Refugees arriving on the Greek island of Lesbos on Wednesday Getty Images Chancellor Angela Merkel’s government has unveiled a number of tough new measures, including the use of military aircraft, to deport tens of thousands of unwelcome economic migrants in an attempt to defuse mounting criticism of her open-door refugee policy.
Europe has struggled to deal with the influx of refugees and migrants making their way across the continent, and the move by Ms Merkel’s government came as thousands remain trapped in the Balkans.
The deteriorating conditions there led European CommissionPresident Jean-Claude Juncker to call for an extraordinary summit of several European leaders to take place later this week aimed at trying to alleviate the problem.
In Germany, under the new plans scheduled to come into operation next week, Luftwaffe pilots will be made available to fly military transport planes to ferry economic migrants from Germany back to so-called “safe” countries such as Albania, Kosovo and Montenegro.

The government also said it wouldn’t give warning of forthcoming deportations and would end its previous policy of delaying the return of unwelcome migrants during the winter. Legal rights enabling migrants to challenge deportation orders would also be curbed.
The measures include plans for “transit zones” on Germany’s borders from where people could be deported before gaining full entry to the country. More than 40 per cent of Germany’s migrants were last month reported to have come from recently deemed “safe” countries.

I lived there and worked there and I have experienced what a true form of democracy is practiced. The government's efficiency to provide all social benefits to the people. How clean and orderly and how respectful people are. Until today, it is still the best place to live in the world. I visit my friend who works and live there for the last 40 years Brian. I would have stayed and married there too, but opted the man I loved from the US.
I agree on all the points you declared. If only the standard of the world's life is that of the CH, it would be heaven.
It has changed a bit. It used to be the cleanest and most beautiful but lately it is not as clean anymore as it used to be.
I couldn't wait when I will have the mastery of String in uploading videos but I know most can just go to google on things that we need to know really. Damn I am happy you are joining our talks here.
I share your whole thinking Twazzle. Not only do we owe it to someone, at least to me, that there is someone powerful out there is because of the endless and mind boggling theories and possibilities of the universe with no end. Anyways, how insignificant are we? To me is a question that can be answered in a personal basis. To me, I am very sure I am very insignificant, just look at the stars and when I was in the Northern Territory of Australia specifically on the last unpolluted rain forest of the world, with mile high trees, I felt very insignificant.
I think I was referring to the ability of a more advanced life or something? But now that I have thought of it deeper, the possibility of having created all these mystery Jono. How are you? Been a while since I last saw you..
I gather that you do believe we are not alone which is great Moose. At least we get that established. But to meet them in our human time, takes a billion light years away or so. Well at least that is a start..wheewww. All I know is that our mind is so limited to even comprehend but there are so many intelligent beings out there that are focused and driven to find out more and that is all that matters to me. The telescope funded and created under the Hughes foundation, is an exhibit that we are gifted with some kind of intelligence that can get us there, though not quite as yet.
Secret thanks for your question, but any hypothetical or not, is not the issue. Movies may or may not depict what is out there, but our minds, as humans don't stop from probing and finding out what is out there ugly or not.
Anyways I am glad you are here expressing your mind.

Illegal Immigration: Trump and Cruz
I don't know if some of you have watched the last debate which was orchestrated by Fox. Maria and the rest did a very splendid job on the questions and moderation.Anyways, I am so impressed with the way Trump and Cruz addressed the immigration issue. When Cruz said, it is and economic issue (personal) and followed with the impact it does to our country specially in our economy.
I stand with Trump, I don't have anything against coming or going to any country. Just do it legally.

We must not completely blame and rely on the ethics of getting in legally, but must be with high conviction to prosecute and or deport illegals.
My recommendation is BUILD A BORDER that works.
What about you?
