That time when obama was in favor of putting a fence at the border

Daily Caller:

A leaked internal memo from Barack Obama’s 2008 campaign says that fencing at the US-Mexico border could help cut down on illegal immigration.

The memo, which was made public by anti-secrecy organization WikiLeaks, is dated September 7, 2008 and contains a list of immigration promises and proposals.

One of Obama’s “core goals,” according to the memo: “Preserve the integrity of our borders to reduce illegal immigration.”

“Securing our borders will not solve the illegal immigration problem in isolation, but combined with an earned path to citizenship for the undocumented and new legal alternatives to unauthorized entry, some additional fencing could help get the border under control.”

When Obama took office there were fewer than 20 border walls of the sort in Dublin and Israel/West bank.
(The sort Trump wants in places on our border.)
Today there are more than 70 such walls.
Why?
Because they work!
When San Diego put up a wall they cut down illegal crossings in that county by 95%.
That’s pretty good.
Mexico is placing one on their own SOUTHERN border.
Why?
Because they know it will work.

Build a Border Wall fill in the tunnels and make the wall so they cant cross over on ladders and hold the mexican goverment liable and responsible for all the crimes cuased by the illegal aliens lets hold sancuary cities liable as well
