I guess people have forgotten that during the campaign he called for drivers licenses for illegals.

“I guess people have forgotten that during the campaign he called for drivers licenses for illegals.”

How about this insane statement:
Aug. 2007 - MIAMI — Before 2,000 people at the convention of a powerful Hispanic advocacy group recently, Sen. Barack Obama made a pitch for unity between African Americans and Hispanics. “Our separate struggles are really one,” the Illinois Democrat declared, quoting a telegram Martin Luther King Jr. sent in 1968 to farm-worker activist Cesar Chávez.

*******Mr. Obama compared last year’s massive immigration rallies led by Hispanics to the civil-rights marches of African-Americans in the 1960s, *********and called for the two groups to stay the course in a common fight for equality. To rousing applause at the convention of the National Council of La Raza, he alluded to “one dream” for blacks and Latinos. Later, he cited his Kenyan-born father as an example of an immigrant who came here in pursuit of the American dream.

. He’s also apparently proud of having spoken at the May 1, 2006 event in Chicago; the main organizers of that event have links to the Mexican government with one even being an official with a foreign political party. That same official is a “key organizer” of this year’s Chicago march [2].

Two years ago, I came home to Chicago to witness the mobilization of hundreds of thousands of citizens and immigrants united in an effort to fix our immigration system. I spoke to the marchers that day, and Senator Kennedy spoke to those marching in Washington. They said to us, “today we march and tomorrow we vote.”
