Many of you don't seem to get it in your heads that the POTUS has to cater to US citizens first and not people who are not in this country illegally. The push for CIR and DA is seen by most USC's as a Hispanic issue because of their ties to so many illegal Hispanic and mainly Mexican immigrants who seem to like bragging how they are going to take over this country. Well that isn't going to sit too well will most US citizens, who don't like the racial demographics changing add to it the high Hispanic birth rates along with anchor babies and you've got quite a volatile political mix.
Obama is walking as I have said before a tight-rope, he can't be seen catering too much the pro-CIA/DA crowd at the expense of US citizens. To many USC's they don't seem to care how much you say the DA would be good for the USA, because they are tired of illegal immigrants period.
As I have said before if it were a few hundred thousand illegal immigrants they wouldn't care if the DA passed, but 11 to 20 plus million? No way are they willing to give on that one. Not to mention that amenesty was voted for by Congress and signed by a very reluctant then Pres. Ronald Reagan. And now over 20 years later here we are again?

Mexico has not help matters by sticking it's nose in US immigration business and trying to dictate what it wants simply because it was to continue getting all of those billions of dollars in remittences sent there by so many illegal Mexicans working in the USA.

So get mad at Obama all you want, just remember it won't be any better under a Republican president either, it will be worst. Please stop acting like the US would never dare try to deport 11 million people, because stranger things have happened. If this economy gets worst you'll see what I talking about. The GOP and the Tea-Party are quite the snakes in the grass in this debate.
You'll find out soon enough, I'm afraid.

Obama would be putting the citizens first with the Dream Act. It might not be instant, but in the long run the beneficiaries of the bill would contribute more for the US in many many ways.

Merely deporting all undocumented would cause a massive amount of money. There would be NO payout to the deportation only strategy. Whatever benefits that you would claim such as, Americans having jobs would only be short term, because of going genocidal on the immigrant consumer base, which I remind you buys all the same the product that you do and more importantly pays all the taxes you do(State, Federal, property tax...etc NAME IT!). Why would you deny a group of talented, hardworking, beneficial residents of America the right to stay here permanently that are at fault due to a mere legal bureaucratic technicality?
