2014 Colorado Governor's race: on Immigration

Bob Beauprez: 2007: Cleanse out illegals; 2014: no need to send them home

Beauprez--who has long said he doesn't support amnesty-style solutions--said he did not support requiring people in the US who are here illegally to go back to their home countries before re-entering legally. "I don't think that's necessary at all in the era we live in today," he said.

That, however, conflicts with what Beauprez wrote on his blog, A Line of Sight, in 2007, when he called sending immigrants home a "cleansing process."

Tom Tancredo: Viva Tancredo: support for legal immigration, in Spanish

Tancredo, who is well-known for his support of English as the official language of the United States, ran unsuccessfully for president in 2008 and for Colorado governor on the Constitution Party ticket in 2010.

Tancredo's new Spanish-language advertising will emphasize support for legal immigration. The ads will note a broken immigration system that rewards undocumented immigrants instead of law-abiding migrants.

A website video below shows Tancredo telling Wolf Blitzer, "No, I would not advertise in Spanish," during a 2008 president cycle debate. The Viva Tancredo website features a Spanish-language news report on the candidate, in which he wears one of his wryly controversial baseball caps, this time flashing the logo of the U.S. Border Patrol.
