Texas Governor Rick Perry went on CNBC today to talk about a lot of issues, including securing the border.

Unfortunately, I can’t get CNBC’s video to embed, so just go here to watch it. The part about the border and immigration starts about 5:40, but he’s got a lot of other good things to say.

Mind you, this isn’t going to help him a heck of a lot with those that think he’s soft on the border… those people have already made up their mind long ago and I seriously doubt that anything he says at this point will change their minds. It might, however, help with some of the undecideds, and for that reason, it was a good move for him to appear and speak in his own words.
