Re: Immigration Reform - exclusive Order
Sounded more inclusive than exclusive.

The caption from today's New York Times reads:
In 1986, Ronald Reagan signed the so-called “amnesty” law passed by Congress that granted legal status to three million undocumented immigrants

Re: Immigration Reform - exclusive Order
I understand this to be one of the points of the article, although it does also point out that after Reagan signed the bill sent from Congress, he
acted on his own the following year to expand it to about 100,000 more.
It is an old issue in American politics of how much a President can do without the approval of Congress, how it plays on this issue I do not know.

Re: Immigration Reform - exclusive Order
You're right...though I think , to some extent, the numbers probably make a difference. I also think, regardless of where a person stands on the legal issue - which is usually more complex than 'right' or 'wrong' - it was a pretty smart political play by President Obama...he now forces the Republican Party to make the next move, and let's face it, from a historical perspective covering the last two or three years - they have tended to bungle these type of situations. It's sad, because they have a chance here to come out ahead by simply crafting a bill that the average, moderate American can get behind, without alienating, or perhaps, even better, actually gaining many Latino voters...
...if they can craft such a bill, it's a win if it passes...or even if it doesn't - as long as it only gets shot down by poison pill amendments from the Democratic Party, and not from within their own.
