Rand Paul: Jeb Was Inarticulate Calling Illegal Immigration An ‘Act Of Love’

Kentucky Senator Rand Paul, who could well find himself debating Jeb Bush in a 2016 presidential primary, went after the former Florida governor’s statement that illegal immigration is often an “act of love.”

“I think he might have been more artful, maybe, in the way he presented this,” said Paul. “But I don’t want to say, oh, he’s terrible for saying this. If it were me, what I would have said is, people who seek the American dream are not bad people.

“However, we can’t invite the whole world. When you say they’re doing an act of love and you don’t follow it up with, but we have to control the border, people think well because they’re doing this for kind reasons that the whole world can come to our country.”
