Obama's immigration strategy

Reuters gets to the heart of what I have argued before, namely that the Obama administration's immigration policies are often designed in such a way as to make everyone distrust them. Prosecutorial discretion makes Republicans think Obama is skirting the law and Democrats think that implementation may not make much difference and is simply a way of courting Latinos without addressing broader reforms.

This seeming contradiction between rhetoric and reality is a key element of debate over U.S. immigration policy, and stakes are high for 2012's presidential election as Obama faces criticism from both conservatives and liberals.

That's not how you win support.

This election can tell us about the future of Immigration ( at least in Arizona ) :


Many VIDEOs : Jerry Lewis, candidate AZ Senate, principal of a school in Mesa Arizona, teacher, educator, businessman, republican, mormon bishop helping the poor and homeless, accountant and businessman. CIO of a construction company


Jerry Lewis and many of his friends speak here about the need to hear Arizona Businesses and help to improve Arizona's future. This is a school principal, teacher, educator, businessman, churchman and community man.

It is necessary to listen to what 60 of the most important businessmen of Arizona say about mistguided policies in Arizona. ( A famous recent letter asking for moderation and rationality ! )

Why Vote for Jerry? - The Candidate speaks here ( Jerry Lewis himself )
