While in Columbia, "you know who" is making campaign pledges. Will Hispanics fall for this, again?

He had two years of a democratically controlled Congress. Did he do anything about immigration? Hispanics overwhelmingly supported this guy. Will they drink from the well one more time? Check out an excerpt from this article:

(Note: his use of the word "try")

"Asked on Univision whether he would promise to move forward rapidly
on immigration reform in a second term, Mr. Obama blamed Republicans
for the failure to reach a solution and pledged, “I can promise that I
will try to do it in the first year of my second term. I want to try
this year.”"

probably... they will vote for anyone that makes the promise. Obama lied 4 years ago...and is doing the same now!! Why is he making these promises in Columbia??? Do they now have the right to vote here in the US??

While President Obama continues to push for a sane and sensible approach to the question of immigrants, the Republicans have instead worked on passing unconstitutional discriminatory legislation against them. Arizona's racist SB1070 was struck down, as was Alabama's and Georgia's discriminatory laws. I don't think any hispanic in this country legal or illegal, has any doubt about which party wants to deal with them in a sane manner and which party wants to treat them like litter in the gutter. The Republicans have no chance. Not that they ever did.

"“I’ll also complete the fence [along the Mexican border], I’ll make sure we have enough Border Patrol agents to secure the fence, and I will make sure we have an E-Verify system and require employers to check the documents of workers,” ----- Mitt Romney.

George's butt ugly fence, now rusting and falling down, cost 4 million a mile. It did litttle to deter illegal activity. They just walked around it.

The estimate to refence the entire border would now cost 9 million a mile. Anyone have an idea where Mitt will get that money? Did he offer anyone specifics about the cost of EVerify for every business? How to enforce it ?? No, of course he did not.

Obama shored up border patrol in every state and has also sent new drones, two now in Texas. He has also deported more illegals than George did in his entire gawd awful 8 years. He also offered up the Dream Act and the Republicans screamed and whined, although it is the same Dream Act John McCain cowrote and offered in 2007. John now cannot recall that he was co author of immigration reform, which was heartily endorsed by GWB.

Considering you're from Texas, you must see a lot of illegal aliens running around there. It won't be long before Texas is a majority of Hispanics. American citizens and illegal aliens.

I realize they're both pandering to a voting bloc. It's sad that some people fall for that.

The guy in charge is going around Congress and giving "back door amnesty". If you're interested, here's a link to an article that describes that. (Warning: the site leans right)

Ron Paul is the man.
