This is rich. This is from the man that was born in Kenya (per Micelle Obama) and is now our President allegedly.
This is nuts and going against all our laws as well as every country in the world’s laws on immigration. What is his problem? What doesn’t he understand? I thought he was the “all knowing” that will tell us what we had for breakfast today, tomorrow, and next month.
Excuse me? Being AMERICAN is MOST CERTAINLY a matter of blood, birth and YO, Culture! I guess he can make this statement because since we are getting so divided and segregated by the left and each other, we as a culture have forgotten what it MEANS to be American! Someone leaves their country, for whatever reason, to come here, to OUR country; the USA, then they need to learn to be Americans. I don’t need to learn to be Chinese, French, German, Mexican, Spanish, Brazilian, Portuguese, Fijian, Philipino, Indian, Morrocan, etc. You come here, learn English (first thing – or better yet learn it before you come here), learn our culture/history (if they even teach that in school), and how OUR government works.
Don’t come here to use OUR laws against us so that you can have it the way it was where you are from, that you are/were currently running away from. You break the law, you go to jail, or go home. Just STOP IT!

ObamaFan: His solution is to give the illegals “a pathway to legal status”. Sooooo, it’s not illegal if we change our minds and make it legal.
I trust there are many who see through this double-speaking mindless and clueless POS/Monkey POTUS
Gene: Turn that teleprompter back on.
AgainstTrump: For once Obama get’s it right. Being an America has always been about choice. We are a nation of immigrants after all. Those who are born here also have the choice — to leave, and by far, to many of them that should, don’t. We need to get back to that view of what it means to be an American, one of choice, versus one of entitlement by birth (the equivalent of the aristocracy). Those who don’t believe in the values of the Founders shouldn’t be granted citizenship, and those who don’t uphold them should be encouraged to leave.
James: If we are not Americans by birth, culture, blood, etc., what DOES make us Americans? Our tv viewing habits? Sports preferences? Menu choices? Well, what?
Slowmoguy: Once again President Obama has planted his fat ass on the fence. Talk about hot air and no direction!!
“And no matter how decent they are, no matter their reasons, the 11 million who broke these laws should be held accountable.”
Yeah right, but what are you actually doing about it Mr. President?
“I’m ready to move forward. The majority of Democrats are ready to move forward, and I believe the majority of Americans are ready to move forward…”
That so? Ready to move forward and do WHAT, ace?
“But the fact is, without bipartisan support, as we had just a few years ago, we cannot solve this problem. Reform that brings accountability to our immigration system cannot pass without Republican votes.”
Which translates as POTUS saying,”Hey, Lord knows I tried folks but…really…it’s all the Republicans fault…My ass is just all tied up.”
I swear this guy’s got enough hot air to reflate The Zeppelin ten times over and then some !!… Unbelievable!!
Unfortunately, this discussion is really old and we’ve closed it.
