Huckabee endorsement 'only if' all illegals out Minuteman founder stresses support conditional on 'leave or get arrested'

The founder of the Minuteman Project says his endorsement of Republican presidential candidate Mike Huckabee is a conditional one – based on a tough understanding of the former governor's "Secure America Plan" to oust all illegal aliens, or put them behind bars.
"Huckabee's plan would force all illegal immigrants to leave the United States within 120 days, or be arrested," Jim Gilchrist told WND in an exclusive interview.
When asked why he thought illegal immigrants would voluntarily deport themselves, as Huckabee's plan requires, Gilchrist said, "If you start arresting illegal aliens and start take away all their social welfare benefits, the illegal aliens won't have a choice except to leave."
Gilchrist further indicated illegals under Huckabee's proposal may have to wait years before they were allowed to re-enter.
"The illegal immigrants will not be allowed back into the United States until they are legally allowed re-entry," he said, "even if that takes years."
"Nothing I can find in Huckabee's plan indicates he is going to let the illegal immigrants back into the country the next day after they go home," Gilchrist continued. "The illegal aliens, once they are back home, will have to stand in line with everybody else and apply for legal entry at the end of the line."
However, when pressed on how he'd react if Huckabee's plan turned out to provide for quick re-entry, Gilchrist ceased his praise.
"If, in fact, there is no standing in line and waiting for legal entry, I would have a serious reservation about endorsing Huckabee," he said.
