I am in my mid 30's Never wanted to get married when I was younger, and I still don't want to get married. I don't know why, it's just how I am. Independent and tough cookie, I guess lol So, that's why there is no solution for me.

Well, I'm independent and tough and I'm married. If you want to be single or dating that's fine. It's no different than making the choice to marry. I have a lot of friends in their mid 30s with no partners and no kids. Let's hope there will be a solution...

It's all damn Obama's fault because he is a f*cking liar, yes, not just a liar but a f*cking liar. I still remember wut he had "promised"(mumbled) to immigrants at the first and second election. Bullshit. It's all over now. watching his 8 years of bull shitty dramas for saving parents of USC & Greencard holders are all bullshit.

Once again, really happy for everyone who will qualify!
That said, the conclusion is that overall when it comes to IMMIGRATION, I am damn sure that the Republican Party is more genuine, this being the key word, than the Democrats. Tomorrow, they will be shutting the door for millions upon millions of people who will not qualify because for sure the Republicans will be enraged and they will never ever work with the Democrats. What's the main reason why they don't want to include parents of DACA beneficiaries? It's NOT because he can't support it legally. That is complete BULLSHIT. He just gave us DACA and everything is going smooth. Why the fuck can't he do that same thing for others? Are they a different species or something? The main reason why he doesn't want to include them is because he doesn't want backlash! He's just trying to protect his ass and his legacy. I am 100% sure if the Republicans had a supermajority, they would pass CIR tomorrow, maybe a VERY TOUGH version but they would definitely do it. Now please don't start scolding me for not appreciating DACA blahblahblah. What a bunch of malarkey...

It’s unclear whether the parents of DACA recipients will be eligible. According to one immigration advocate who spoke on condition of anonymity, DACA recipient Astrid Silva and her father have been invited to attend Obama’s primetime address on Thursday, a signal that deferred action may be cover parents

You're kidding right? The republicans are genuine? Yeah, they are genuine alright--genuine about the fact that they oppose any kind of immigration, legal or otherwise. I do believe that the president believes in CIR. I also realize that as much as this is a real life situation for undocumented folks like myself and our families this is also a political decision he is making here. And you're right, the president is probably to some extent thinking about his legacy. And why shouldn't he? It's HIS legacy. I, like you, want him to cover as many people as possible, but I also want this to hold up in the courts and in the court of public opinion. Granting deferred action to parents of USC and LPR is not nothing. That's a big deal for millions of Americans and even some dreamers who come from mixed status families. The president could very easily sit back and so nothing like his "genuine" republican counterparts but he is choosing to do something instead. We should all be grateful that more people will able to partake in the benefits that DACA has given many dreamers.

Sorry for typos. Writing on phone.

Precisely why I said GENUINE, being the key word. Nobody is saying they will hand out green cards. But they would do something, 100% sure about that. Maybe introduce a VERY VERY TOUGH path but they would do SOMETHING. Everyone has a different definition of the word genuine. You want to know who is an example of a politician genuinely expressing his position on an issue? Jeff Sessions of Alabama. Don't be surprised if he's on the Senate floor tomorrow speaking his BS. But he speaks the SAME BS all the time. Not like some others who change colors more than a freakin chameleon.
