Whoever wrote that wikipedia entry misrepresented the foot note source he referred to.
From the link provided in the article:
Quote:
In January of 2011, Mr Cain spoke at a campaign event in Nevada and stated that he believed that the border should be supported securing the border, enforcing current immigration laws, and promoting the "path to citizenship" already in place and not creating a new one...
... MRN: If elected, how would a Cain administration deal with border security and illegal immigration?
HC: First things first: the term “comprehensive immigration reform” tossed around by liberals is simply code for “do nothing” which becomes amnesty.
There are 3 steps to solving our illegal immigration problem: securing the border (we put a man on the moon, so this isn’t that hard!); enforce the laws; promote the existing path to citizenship...
...We must secure our borders, enforce our laws and promote the existing path to citizenship...

According to the quote which was misrepresented in the wikipedia entry, Cain doesn't seek to make citizens of illegals, he merely says that we need to use the existing path and not create a new one. However, I believe he needs to clarify that statement.
He also says that present immigration law needs to be enforced, and the border needs to be secured.
