I think this is a great Idea. Politicians are hesitant to get out front of controversial issues. If the White House perceives that there are a growing number of mainstream voters who are looking for a candidate to address an issue they are more apt to respond. I would add that it is not beyond the realm of possibility to see the more main stream Republican party look to find a solution since they are growing ever mindful of the need for Latino votes in order to get elected in certain areas. Important areas in terms of the electoral college such as Texas and California. It might be beneficial to go fishing amongst the Republicans at the same time pressure is being put on the White House. A little insecurity for both might be a good thing in this instance. Both seem a little to smug in their attitudes towards this issue and the people effected.
