• According to Palin there are 12 million illegal immigrants in
the US and deporting them is not possible economically as well as
it is not a humane way of dealing with the issue. They should be
made to follow rules and made to understand that legal immigrants
should have the first preference of opportunities provided by
this great country. If they follow the rules they can be treated
fairly and equally in the country.
• Not having expressed her views on illegal immigration often,
Sarah supports citizenship for illegal immigrants but feels there
is no amnesty for the illegal immigrants. Priority should be
given to the legal immigrants before granting opportunities to
the illegal ones.
• She has reached out to the illegal immigrants requesting
their needs. She feels that they require more vocational
training, the end of gang violence, assistance to seniors and
mostly outreach and communication within their communities.
Palin insists on a diversity task force.
• Illegal immigrants in Alaska are at loggerheads over
obtaining driver's licenses before Palin was elected Governor.
The state Senate then approved a Bill banning licenses to
illegals tightening the requirements for obtaining a license only
if they prove their legal identity. This has affected the illegal
immigrants in Alaska severely.
• Sarah Palin has stated that she is sick to death about the
immigration nonsense and has not expressed her views often on
illegal immigration. She feels that the new administration needs
of Alaska should be energetically started early to enable a
co-operative relationship with Canada.

• Opposes driver's licenses for illegal immigrants.
• Huckabee opines that illegal immigrants should go home and
start over again. According to him it is not being cruel but
being kind to those who have spent their lives in hiding and
running on sighting a police car. He feels that the country owes
this priority to the legal ones who have been waiting in line for
a long time. This would make sense and protect the borders and
the dignity of each person in the country.
• Huckabee proposed building a border fence within the first 18
months of taking office. By doing this there would be no open
door for people to just walk in and out of at will. According to
him Americans are not angry that people are coming into the
country but instead they thank God that people are trying to
break into their country rather than break out of it, but they
should come in legally which would be better for the country and
themselves.
• Huckabee wants the American citizens to hold their heads up
high. But with the illegal immigrants it is not possible since
they are throughout America in hiding while at the same time
trying to feed their families. He wants all citizens in the US
to live decently and hence the illegal immigrants should start
all over again and get a legal citizenship in order to live
decently with a sense of pride and not fear.
• Huckabee acknowledges America's need for doctors and
engineers in abundance but says they should enter the country
legally.
