Obama is a true racist. Why does the US President hate the advancement of the standard of living for Mexico’s poor? Barrack Hussein Obama; how dare you deprive Mexico its young educated and motivated people? These illegal aliens now in the US are the only hope for Mexico and you want to keep them here in the US. They could start businesses, create jobs, and improve the standard of living for the poor people of Mexico. Yet you want to be selfish and deprive Mexico of these talented youth who could make life better for all the people of Mexico. SHAME ON YOU! Have you no compassion for the poor now living in Mexico? Gustavo Arellano, Steve Gallardo, Nicky Diaz Santillan, and La Raza need to insist that all these young educated and talented Mexicans be sent back to Mexico to help improve the standard of living for the poor Mexicans.

If being poor was legal basis for violating our immigration laws -- then the Haitians should be shoo-ins.
Haitians are much poorer than any country south of our border -- but we send Haitians back immediately when we catch them -- but not hispanics.
Hmmm, isn't that a version of profiling?

Right on AW. Obama only acted because he thought he might increase his Hispanic voting base. However, I seriously doubt that he factored in the loss of votes from non Hispanics who far outnumber the Hispanic population. For every unemployed American and his/her family who votes, I suspect his actions will create negative numbers.

The rush for the border has started and "proper papers" will soon be for sale on every street corner. All thanks to our imperial president.

I wish some smart commentator or someone educated back east would comment here and tell us all what Neocons we really are. Then they would give that Law Professor a piece of his mind and tell us all why this is the best thing that could have ever happened. I can't wait

Let's just put a signpost in southern Arizona .....step this way to sign up for the Democratic party.
Arizona Willie posted at 9:37 am on Sun, Jul 1, 2012.
Nope, I resigned from the Democratic Party because they support invading aliens.
As a liberal, I happily pay taxes to help those less fortunate.
BUT THE TAXES ARE SUPPOSED TO HELP AMERICANS and those here legally --- not be given to people who invade us while flying a Mexican flag and demand services and " rights ".
I voted for Ron Paul last election because he was the ONLY one who is willing to actually deport the invaders.

Arizona Willie - we are in 100% agreement. I want Ron Paul to head up the Dept. of Treasury.

Tell Mexican President Enrique Pena Nieto that his country must stop exporting drugs and illegal Mexican occupiers of the United States and re claim its illegal Mexican occupiers now in the US. This is such an embarrassing situation for Mexico. La Raza, The Arizona Coalition for Migrant Rights, National Immigrant Solidarity Network/AFGJ and Casa Aztlánwill help Nieto in stopping this illegal occupation of the United States and create a working birth control program in Mexico. They can’t afford to have so many children and the situation will only get worse. Are you with us?

Hello, my fellow American voters!
I watched the Oct. 3rd, 11th, 16th, and 22nd debates.
1st Romney-Obama debate covered 7 topics: jobs; budget deficit/debt; social security/entitlements; federal gov’t economic regulation and role; healthcare; partisan gridlock.
2nd Romney-Obama debate covered 11 topics: college graduate jobs; gas prices; taxes; equal pay; Bush policies; Obama’s record; illegal immigrants; Libya; assault weapons; jobs; candidate misperceptions.
3rd Romney-Obama debate covered 10 topics: Libya; Syria; Egypt; U.S. world role; military spending; Israel; Iran; Afghanistan; China; U.S. national security threats.
Ryan-Biden debate covered 10 topics: Libya; Iran; economy; medicare/social security/entitlements; tax reform/spending/budget cuts; military policy; Afghanistan; Syria; abortion; negative campaign tactics.
Romney and Ryan won all 4 debates, although Obama improved some in the 2nd debate and Romney slightly took the win both in the 2nd and 3rd debates.
In the 3rd debate (unlike in prior debates), Obama reflected his weakness and disrespect by interrupting Romney a lot and using too many “one-line quips” to try to denigrate Romney.
Ryan won despite Biden’s consistently rude behavior during the debate (often interrupted Ryan, laughed when Ryan talked, pointed his finger). Biden’s tactics to evade issues/truth disrespected Americans interested in facts, figures, forecasts, and solutions for real people with real problems.
Romney and Ryan won with substance, directness, integrity, respect, clarity, facts, commitment, inspiration, credibility, and leadership.
As an INDEPENDENT female feminist (egalitarian) voter, I support the Romney/Ryan ticket.
Romney and Ryan, with their no-nonsense and methodic approach to solving America’s problems, are the best persons in terms of qualifications and character to lead our country and make life better for all Americans.
I am inspired by Romney/Ryan, and I hope that you are too!
Best regards,
Cas Lee
