I definitely do not want to keep waiting here indefinitely for a Green Card, it's not worth the trouble.
This. Even if Obama gets elected and wants to pass immigration reform, nothing will happen because Republicans are completely against any form of legalization. He has made it clear that he will not issue any executive orders related to immigration. In order for legalization to take place, a bill must pass senate and house. There is no other way for DA to pass so with Republicans in power, it seems very unlikely.
