' T h e U.S. was founded upon the principles of the Gospel of Jesus Christ," Noorlander said. "Going further into debt is against [those] principles." The candidates also fielded questions about what realistic steps they would take to deal with the 12 million illegal immigrants now residing in the U.S. Chaffetz said he does not support a pathway to citizenship for illegal immigrants, and Noorlander said that illegals should be given four years to get their affairs in order, liquidate assets, then go home. Spencer, on the other hand, expressed his support of giving illegal immigrants the opportunity stay by advocating a streamlined process to citizenship. " W e are not going to deport our way out of this problem," said Spencer. "Two-thirds of the students that will graduate in 2010 from higher education will be from foreign countries, and many of them will be denied citizenship after graduation." In closing, candidates were asked their outcome predictions of the presidential election. Spencer predicts Obama by seven points. Chaffetz said McCain will be the next president. Noorlander also predicted McCain to win, "but h e ' s a globalist and will literally destroy the Republican Party."
