Wisconsin's Walker admits flip on immigration
Source: AP-Excite
WASHINGTON (AP) Gov. Scott Walker once envisioned a world where the 11 million immigrants living in the country illegally could embark on a path to citizenship.
But now the Wisconsin Republican calls that position "amnesty" and says his view has changed.
"I don't believe in amnesty," Walker told "Fox News Sunday." "My view has changed. I'm flat out saying it. Candidates can say that."
Walker, who emerged this past week in the top tier of potential candidates for the Republican presidential nomination for 2016, says the U.S. needs to secure the border and ultimately put in place "a legal immigration system that works."

Walker's idea of a legal immigration system that works is one where illegal immigrants work for nothing as long as they don't complain about low pay and workplace hazards. It they do, then the plant is raided and the illegals are sent home. The plant operators are fined a thousand dollars and that's the end of the story.
