Calling people out is going overboard.

So don't overeact. Just let the game play out. Both Rubio and Obama are cornering themselves. Watch what happens...I guarantee you one of them will have to fold and completely surrender and this will mean something will happen for us.

This forum will not censor explicit language, but we ask that you refrain from using it unnecessarily.

What happened to censoring profanity or explicit language? Who deems it to be necessary or unneccesary? I can argue that my language is necessary/justified because the actions of Daniela and Rivera are inhumane to another level.

If you want to take it up with Nick, feel free to do so.

Now, they also have to be accepted by a 4-year American university, only then can they get a non-immigrant visa.

=====!!!=====

Here's the punchline, anyone who is18.5 or younger, can leave the country without a ban, and simply apply for a student visa. If one already has an acceptance letter from an American university, and has shown that they are willing to leave when their status goes south, their petition will most likely get approved. You used to be able to do it from within the US, but I think they have changed it a bit.

The only thing this non-immigrant status would grant, is the right to work, which is usually also granted to graduate students with their visas. 8-year waiting period for the right to apply for PR? Come on.

This is not a dream act, it does not actually do anything, and if the legislature actually wastes their time and takes it up, it will be the biggest political farce of all.
