Obama Issues DREAM Act by executive order | What is the DREAM Act? | with Lili Gil

[iNvRG]

My Grandma came over to the United States from Mexico when she was a young child along with her 3 sisters. They came over here around the 1930's and made the best life had to offer. My grandma had to learn English herself and assimilate into the American culture. Now a days it's nothing more then the Government catering to illegals and legals a like by supporting there lives with all these "entitlement" programs while our once great country is decaying from the inside out.

Great vid

[Voodicus]

liligil we do not live in a south american dictatorship, we have something here called the rule of law, so whether you disagree or not, whether you like it or not, the president does not make law.... have a nice day =)

[liligil]

@Voodicus thanks for your comment and I absolutely agree with your statement. It is interesting how this memo while it does not "pass law" it implies protection for an item that has clearly been of contention with the US Senate and Congress. I am with you! and thanks for watching and for your candid comment.

Obama heatedly spoke against Executive Orders during his 2008 campaign. But, of course, like most of what he said, he lied. Thatnks a lot, Democraps!

[RevJoshua]

As long as we can communicate effectively, all this controversy can be rectified. It is important that we take interest in each other and find beneficial education within each of our cultures, mutually. We must recognize this. In all the history of mankind there has been a cross-cultural influence in our very nature. Why should now be any different?

So i see you only approve comments that you deem ok

[liligil]

@Crooklyncat No I don't it just takes me some time to get through all of them.

Thanks for your comments! we welcome and appreciate them all. That is the core of this beautiful democracy we live in.

i knew guys in the military that didnt speak a lick of English and they STILL got citizenship! WAKE UP, YOURE BEING CONTROLLED BY THE ELITE!

el congreso no lo voto , en diciembre 2010 .

[liligil]

@gus196666 de acuerdo no ha pasado, pero el memo de Obama "parcialmente" protege al estudiante sin papeles. No se los da, pero al menos lo protege de ser deportado.

I'm glad it was rejected. I was a college student. I paid my way through college. Wanted to go out of states, but was required to pay out of state fees, so I didn't want to. I'm glad this bill was rejected. No to the dream act.

The only reasonable package of solutions for illegal immigration problem is:

1) secure the border; build the fence; stop drug and illegals trafficing on the border

2) strict visa laws for third world countries; go and arrest everyone who overstays his/her visa

3) for the illegals already here: DEPORT, DEPORT, and only DEPORT

Congress voted the Dream Act down?  The President does not have the authority to declare law! Obama is also overreaching in his war powers in Libya! He's not a dictator! Or is he?

[liligil]

@MrWatchdawg77 His memo doesn't pass law but partially supports what would be a DREAM act. It was rejected in December by the senate.

Their chances were slim, but thousands of illegal immigrant teens and young adults saw their best opportunity to become United States citizens vanish on Saturday when the Senate rejected the Dream Act on a vote of 55-41, shy of the 60 supporters needed.
