Ma'am, Rick Perry was the governor when your husband died in the line of duty. If he didn't protect the border then, how's he going to do it in the future?

I've heard that ad on the radio. Perry and White have completely different positions when it comes to border security. Perry wants the deployment of the National Guard, border fence, more border patrol, etc while White wants more local Sheriffs deputies on patrol in the border counties. I don't know if White really is an advocate for sanctuary cities, but at the same time I don't know why Perry hasn't proposed anything banning sanctuary cities in TX in the last ten years either.
