I don't think you're going to be a success in anything if you think about losing, whether it's in sports or in politics.

We should strengthen our immigration laws to prevent the importation of foreign wages and working conditions. We should make it illegal for employers to lay off Americans and then fill their jobs by bringing in workers from overseas.

And we should end the unskilled immigration that competes with young Americans just entering the job market.
