Youth that we've invested in - and who have lived most their lives in America - can now make the most of their lives...as Americans. Working, contributing, and fighting for America. Great move by Obama, but he should make it permanent, not temporary.

That shows they can be swayed by public pressure. Will 1 event do it? No, but collective and continual pressure has paid off and will continue to do so.

Wal-Mart and the Walton Family Foundation dump millions into such candidates across the country.

Um, right. Melting pot? Constitution? Give me your poor, your tired, your huddled masses? Ever heard of these things? Maybe Tignino should get back to the books instead of spewing his ugly nationalist rants. I support his right to speak his mind, no matter how twisted, because I believe in the Constitution. And guess what, it's actually OK to be a Christian first and an American second, though his ranking system sounds pretty silly. I've always put God ahead of the current president of the U.S., whoever it is.

And thousands of people rallying in the streets for immigration reform. Hmm. How's it feel to be out-organized?

I say, welcome to America, thanks for your contribution, and let's build a better country together. I'm excited by the future of this country that the next Census will reflect and will join with those that were at this rally to work for reforms that make sense - and relfect our values.

Wow. Psst. The rest of the country has moved on...

The Tea Party folks are the gift that keeps giving. Keep it up! And we'll get more bills passed that actually help Americans.

She came out against the Census until she realized it could put her Congressional seat in jeopardy. How self serving. Thanks for posting ddaichiro!
