President Obama is expected to announce major changes to immigration policy before the end of 2014 -- and possibly as soon as this week. On one level, this is the end of a process that started in March, when the administration first announced it was reviewing deportation policy to see how it could be made more humane. On another level, though, this is another phase in the development of an immigration system that's been transformed over the last 20 years.
To understand how we got to this point, it's necessary to understand why immigration policy looks so different now than it did back then. Massive relief to millions of unauthorized immigrants would be an unprecedented move on Obama's part -- but it is also a reaction against trends in immigration enforcement that are themselves unprecedented.

Soros, and the billionaire “techies” will make Obama a very rich man. Just like Al Gore.

“9) Not feeling under threat matters tremendously to immigrants”
Yes, we wouldn’t want criminals or murderers to be under threat by the law either.
Not being under threat from our own government would matter tremendously to law abiding citizens too.
So why is our own government more concerned and compassionate about scoff law illegal aliens than US citizens?
Because the government has become corrupt and an instrument of power and vengeance Barack Obama uses against the American people and American culture he despises.
Libertarianism.
COMPLETE PLATFORM TEXT
INDIVIDUAL RIGHTS AND CIVIL ORDER
IMMIGRATION:
THE ISSUE: We welcome all refugees to our country and condemn the efforts of U.S. officials to create a new Berlin Wall which would keep them captive. We condemn the U.S. governments policy of barring those refugees from our country and preventing Americans from assisting their passage to help them escape tyranny or improve their economic prospects.
THE PRINCIPLE: We hold that human rights should not be denied or abridged on the basis of nationality. Undocumented non-citizens should not be denied the fundamental freedom to labor and to move about unmolested. Furthermore, immigration must not be restricted for reasons of race, religion, political creed, age or sexual preference. We oppose government welfare and resettlement payments to non-citizens just as we oppose government welfare payments to all other persons.
SOLUTIONS: We condemn massive roundups of Hispanic Americans and others by the federal government in its hunt for individuals not possessing required government documents. We strongly oppose all measures that punish employers who hire undocumented workers. Such measures repress free enterprise, harass workers, and systematically discourage employers from hiring Hispanics.
TRANSITIONAL ACTION: We call for the elimination of all restrictions on immigration, the abolition of the Immigration and Naturalization Service and the Border Patrol, and a declaration of full amnesty for all people who have entered the country illegally.
They aren’t IMMIGRANTS until they are given citizenship in the country accepting them. They are ILLEGAL ALIEN INVADERS!!!
This is why the Founding Fathers decided that the U.S President needed to be an American.
I agree that's what our Marxist overlords think, but they're deluded if they think it will be "permanent." We'll simply secede and create a new supermajority of conservatives.
As with things like "global warming", "celebrate diversity" and "Islam is a religion of peace, the Left is engaging in magical thinking with this "legalize Hispanics and rule over Christians and conservatives forever" notion.

“help immigrants” really? I think this is going to poison immigration for decades. Plus, they are not “immigrants”, who don’t need help, they are illegal infiltrators.
So why is he going to hurt millions of Americans?
Saw that some time ago. The video isn’t that long. I wish that Fox would allow its evening crew to play it and then have a discussion. It would be an even bigger benefit if they were allowed Lynch’s “They Come to America”, pts 1 & 2.
This country would go on fire.
Just imagine all the bad things that will happen if Obama somehow legalizes 40 or 50 million socialists as voting citizens.
That is the real reason for his threats, he wants all those things you imagine, unlike you, they just see them as a plus.
Not only just a ‘citizen’ but he was sired by a communist, Muslim cult guru named Mohammed Subuh. Long story here but mama Stanley Ann had to go to Kenya to legitimize baby Obama’s birth. The guy is a totally corrupt person who was given the power to purge his records in favor of a bunch of garbage.
The Illegals are here in the MILLIONS BECAUSE of ALL the BENEFITS that WE PAY FOR!!!
They aren’t immigrants. They are illegal aliens.
It isn’t just illegals or legals, the world has billions of people ready to move from their current life on dirt floors and bordering on starvation as they work to survive, that would move here whether there is welfare or not.
Who wouldn’t prefer to struggle in a place with great infrastructure, clean water, utilities, stable government and law enforcement and greater safety and on and on, instead of a third world hell hole?
Besides, why play that game anyway, do you really expect an end to social programs anytime soon?
Just how are you going to simply secede? In 1860, it was not so simple, what is different now?
