    NumbersUSA: Bad grades Santorum, Johnson, Daniels, Gingrich



    From: Roy Beck, President, NumbersUSA
    Date: Wednesday 18MAY2011 Noon EDT

    NEWEST ADDITIONS TO PRESIDENTIAL HOPEFULS LIST ARE DREARIER THAN THE OTHERS

    Below is the Ratings Grid for two brand new entries in the Presidential sweepstakes (Santorum & Johnson), somebody likely to enter soon (Daniels), plus a reminder of just how bad is the record of Newt Gingrich who formally announced his candidacy last week.

    As with all our ratings, I emphasize that any of these Hopefuls can improve their grades with public statements and website postings. We review each Hopeful every week and make modifications in ratings and grades based on the latest developments.



    If you like one of these candidates, you now know that you have your work cut out for you in trying to persuade them to adopt better immigration positions.

    You can always view ALL the Hopefuls by clicking on the big red button on our www.NumbersUSA.com home page, or go directly to:

    http://www.numbersusa.com/content/actio ... ances.html

    That is also where you can click on any Hopeful photo and get a page of all the quotes and citations that went into each of the 12 ratings for that Hopeful.

    VOLUNTEER TO PRESSURE THESE CANDIDATES TO DO A BETTER JOB

    Most of the Hopefuls provide no way to email, fax or phone them to express your opinions.

    Thus, the main way that you can cause them to realize that REDUCING IMMIGRATION is critically important to voters is for you to show up where they show up.

    ACTION: Please go to your Action Board and click on the survey at the top of the page if you are willing to have our staff contact you when any Presidential Hopeful -- including Pres. Obama -- is in your area.

    If you can grab a chance to ask a question in a forum or informally, or shout a question in a crowd, that counts for a lot. It also will help if the Hopeful's staff and the media see fliers on immigration reduction being passed out where the Hopefuls appear.

    Please sign up for us to let you know when you might be able to help.

    PROBLEMS WITH THE LATEST ADDITIONS TO OUR PREZ GRID

    I know that many have had some hope for former Sen. Rick Santorum (R-Pa.) because he had a reasonably decent Immigration-Reduction grade during his tenure in the House and Senate. But his B-minus was nothing to write home about. And his recent statements show a bias toward greedy employers and a callous indifference toward unemployed Americans.

    In this time of soaring unemployment rates, Sen. Santorum continues to say this country needs more immigrant workers.

    Former Speaker of the House Newt Gingrich (R-Ga.) has the same exact compassionate blind spot. Given his record in Congress that earned him a grade of D, we don't have a lot of hope for him.

    Former Gov. Gary Johnson (R-New Mexico) has thrown himself into the chase as a kind of really different candidate. But his platform on immigration differs from the dreary platforms of most of the rest of the Hopefuls primarily by his aggressive support for amnesty for illegal aliens.

    Gov. Mitch Daniels (R-Ind.) is expected to announce soon whether he will pursue a candidacy. He has been getting a ton of media coverage. In anticipation, we have researched his immigration positions and found that he basically has been silent on most immigration issues. In the few places he HAS weighed in, his record is kind of mixed.

    On the full grid of Hopefuls, you will find Daniels in the bottom section of Other Potential Candidates.

    The fact that the field of Republican Hopefuls has hardly anybody willing to challenge Pres. Obama's platform of radically increased immigrant workers and amnesty, is a sign that voters are not getting through to the politicians in the same way that business lobbies are.

    If NumbersUSA members don't show up at the candidate events and visits to raise our immigration issues, who will?

    THANKS FOR ALL YOU ARE ABLE TO DO. PLEASE TAKE THE SURVEY ON YOUR ACTION BOARD.
