“There is broad support for the idea that we should figure out a way to help kids who are undocumented through no fault of their own, but there is also broad consensus that it should be done in a way that does not encourage illegal immigration in the future. This is a difficult balance to strike, one that this new policy, imposed by executive order, will make harder to achieve in the long run.”
That’s a pretty good answer right there, although obviously I wish that he would have been less diplomatic and said outright that what Obama is trying to do violates U.S. law and thus would be an unconstitutional act by the president.
On this one issue more than any other, any compromise means goodbye USA.
Since when is there broad support for making the children of illegal immigrants legal citizens? I don’t give a fig what age they are, they came here circumventing our laws, and they should have their posteriors booted from our soil, the sooner the better.
