Voter Grills Kasich on Illegal Immigration: Why Haven’t You Gone Down to the Border?

‘I would like to go all over the country, but there is only so much time’

KASICH: "There are so many hours in the day. Would it be great to go there, I would like to go all over the country, but there is only so much time. I didn’t know that you didn’t know that I absolutely believe we have to secure the border. I know we have to secure the border. We were just talking here about what, in ‘86, Reagan and the Republicans and Democrats passed a plan on immigration, but we just talked about it. We didn’t enforce it. We need to enforce it. We have to protect our border. I’ll tell you. It’s not just because of that. I worry about ISIS or people who are part of that coming into our country. So it’s a given, you know, it’s a given, we do that, but we shouldn’t just do that and wait to do it all at one time. And the other thing is, if somebody comes across that border, we’ve got to send them back now. No more coming in. You’ve got to do it legally, okay."
