If the Washington Times story is correct, Huckabee means business- he is hungry for it. He has officially gone out on a limb that only Ron Paul has even looked at.

While he has been no champion for people opposed to illegal aliens historically, he has now taken a stand that might just push some policy reform forward. If the other candidates don't take equally strong positions, the immigration issue could turn into a strength for Huckabee. (Click here for article)

If Huckabee campaigns on the position that he will push to amend the Constitution to prevent children born in the U.S. to illegal aliens from automatically becoming citizens he will cut into the support currently thrown behind other candidates.

Illegal immigration will continue to be a hot button issue for many of us who believe that illegal immigration is one of the greatest threats to U.S. national security and to U.S. sovereignty.

Additionally, Huckabee's stated intention to pardon border agents Ramos and Campean will score him points with many conservatives who believe that Bush has failed to do right by these agents.

He is absolutely on the money on this issue and the other candidates should start paying attention immediately.
