I think it is possible to a) be conservative and b) be for legal immigration. I know Kirk has had a lot of negative feedback for this position but I think it is important to remember that America has always been pro-immigration. If you look back historically on times where there was a lot of anti-immigration sentiment, it was typically when Americans felt that immigrants were being imported specifically to undercut their wages--and they were correct in that anger. Note Kirk states that he is for supporting immigrants who can contribute to our society--and that is not the same thing. So, until I see something more convincing I will not be thinking he is pro Open Borders, or Soros backed. Good to question all voices but we also don't want to be pushing out advocates we share the cause with.
