A Latino-vote outreach program on Tuesday plans to stress to voters
that the president has failed on immigration reform and deported a
record number of people, said the Republican National Committee's top
Hispanic outreach coordinator.
But so far, it doesn't have a message on what Republicans would do on
the issue themselves, and specifically the plans of presumptive
Republican nominee Mitt Romney. In fact, coordinator Bettina Inclan told
reporters, Romney didn't have his immigration policy mapped out and the
RNC would not yet be able to talk about it to Latino voters.
The RNC quickly tried to take back the statement, telling reporters
who tweeted it that Inclan's words were misunderstood -- or that she was
misquoted. Kirsten Kukowski, a spokeswoman for the RNC, said message
coordination between the RNC and the Romney campaign is still in its
early stages because challenger Rick Santorum only dropped out of the
race two weeks ago.
Still, the statement by Inclan seemed to indicate the RNC's lack of
message on immigration, despite an increased effort to turn out Latino
voters. Below is the full quote from Inclan, that Kukowski would later
say was misconstrued:
I think that as a candidate, to my understanding that he's
still deciding what his position on immigration is, so I can't talk
about what his proposal is going to be because I don't know what Romney
exactly -- he's talked about different issues, and what we saw in the
Republican primary is that there's a diverse opinion on how to deal with
immigration. I can't talk about something that I don't know what his
position is.
A few minutes later, after apparently reading tweets from reporters
on the phone and in the room, Kukowski said they were misreporting the
statemen

Kane Fernau 2012/05/08 21:53:07Wait: Obama has deported a record number of illegals?+3Mexico's unemployment is 5%. More Mexicans are leaving than coming because our economy is worse than Mexico's. If Obama wins re-election.Americans will be sneaking into Mexico.





















what happens in 2016? will you vote for an 84 year old Ron Paul?
if he doesn't have a policy, how can he be held responsible for it? how can he be accused of 'wallfing' already?
not only does Obama get credit for legally deporting a record amount, his economic practices have resulted in an even GREATER Number self deporting.
that Obama. he's such a wiz...
He initially said he was tough on illegal immigration. In fact was rated a B by Numbers USA on his anti illegal immgiration policy. Do your homework. Now he is saying Obama is tougher and they don't want to vote for him because he has deported a record number of illegals.
Mitt Romney's campaign reported this. not Obama.
That Romney. He is such a wiz....
Romney is saying that Obama is tougher than him on illegal immigration? or his talking heads are saying that?
yeah. well. until it leaves the Mittster's mouth, i'll reserve judgment.
Is Romney not responsible for his own staff choices? Will that be a theme for a Romney presidency? I didn't do it my staff did it?
I don't think Romney has to have every position in place yet -- he hasn't even been nominated yet, and I'm sure there are MANY Republicans who will insist on input into the platform. If he states something too strongly now, he may have to take it back later -- that would really be waffling. I'm sure he's been warned about certain issues too (to avoid being too definite about them yet).
I don't mind of course. Just giving you the heads up.
Apparenlty you don' follow politics. I would suggest that you do some research. These are all issues Romney's campaign brought up.
Now hush up child. You are making a fool of yourself.
