In the interview, Obama said he is confident his administration will pass immigration reform and achieve the equivalent of a grand bargain with Congress. After failing to achieve comprehensive immigration reform in his first term, the president said Republicans, given the large Latino vote, will be invested in changing the system. "I'm confident we'll get done next year is immigration reform," Obama said in the transcript of the interview posted online by the paper. "And since this is off the record, I will just be very blunt. Should I win a second term, a big reason I will win a second term is because the Republican nominee and the Republican Party have so alienated the fastest-growing demographic group in the country, the Latino community." |

Secure Latino Vote? Why bother? He lied about passing it in his first term, and Latinos are still supporting him. All the next Dem running for Pres. has to do is say he'll do it in the first term, and Latinos will fall for it again.
Please show me one concrete action he took to try and pass CIR, besides speeches. He didn't lift a finger. He knew Latinos would still support him.
