Who better for our safety, sovereignty?

Of the many revelations of late, the most concerning for me is one from WikiLeaks revealing that while Secretary Hillary Clinton professes she wants our nation to be safe and secure, she surreptitiously advocates “open borders.” She also recently called for “tough vetting” of immigrants – are these concepts not mutually exclusive?

How do we vet those streaming over our borders? And how do we guaranty the safety and security for our own people in this reality? Sadly, by the time we find out about some of those people who have crossed our borders illegally, it is all too often because someone here legally has been murdered, raped or involved in a drunk-driving accident at the hands of one of them, not to mention the drugs that are flowing in and related violence in our inner cities.

And where does the term sovereignty come into all this? With our non-enforcement of border and immigration laws, are we not watering down our sovereignty to the point that it will become meaningless? Is that what we really want?

Ask yourself, who has the better solution for our safety, security and ultimately our sovereignty, Clinton or Donald Trump?
