He has been making promises like this for months…. This was buried under the SS Sex scandal in Columbia.

(Reuters) – President Barack Obama attacked Republican White House hopeful Mitt Romney on Saturday over his stance on illegal immigrants and promised to pursue broad immigration reform if he wins another term.
On a three-day visit to Colombia for a summit with Latin American leaders, Obama is hoping to court Hispanic voters back home whose support could be crucial to him in the November 6 election.
The Democratic president wants to fight an impression that he has neglected Latin America and failed to push hard enough on comprehensive immigration reform.
Obama said in an interview with Univision that Romney’s support of Arizona’s tough immigration law was “very troublesome.”
“We now have a Republican nominee who said that the Arizona laws are a model for the country,” Obama said, referring to Republican front-runner Romney, a former Massachusetts governor.
“These are laws that potentially would allow someone to be stopped and picked up and asked where their citizenship papers are based on an assumption,” Obama said in the interview, which was taped in Cartagena on Friday.
The Arizona law, signed by Republican Governor Jan Brewer in 2010, calls on state and local police to check the immigration status of people suspected of being in the country illegally and to pursue deportation aggressively.
Pressed on whether he would promise to move forward on immigration reform quickly if he gets re-elected, Obama blamed Republicans for the inaction so far and added, “I can promise that I will try to do it in the first year of my second term. I want to try this year.”
Obama enjoys a big advantage with Latino voters, who tend to favor Democratic candidates and backed him by a margin of two-to-one in his 2008 race against Republican John McCain.
However, Obama hopes to avoid any erosion of support from these voters in battleground states like Florida, Nevada, Arizona and Colorado, where Latinos make up a large portion of the population.
DRIVE THE CORRUPTION IN BOTH POLITICAL PARTIES OUT OF WASHINGTON.
Evidence is accumulating on the issue of Voter fraud, that although Attorney General Eric Holder stated, “that Voter Fraud is nonexistent” many state election commissions of finding out the hard way that they are not exempt from the problem. Under the present federal law there are no real barriers to illegal aliens voting, the dead, felons or people who do not even live in any particular precinct district have been found in the election rolls. The right of citizens voting is one of our greatest assets, but more and more events are materializing across the country that even illegal aliens are registering. The Liberal press will keep this type of issue in under the wraps, with the fact is that the majority of violations belong to the Democratic officials. These people have just ignored or deliberately allowed foreign nationals to vote, without any regress?
Voters must discharge the Politicians, Governors, Mayors, special interest groups and the whole blend of elected officials that are harboring foreign nationals, who have implemented Sanctuary cities ordinances, who have driven policies of the Dream Acts, Chain migration ID Theft, Voter Fraud and other catastrophic Comprehensive Reform packages. But more important than anything else is to remove this President before drives us into further debt, which we cannot possibly survive. Our voting privileges are not safe anymore, from groups like ACORN involved with voter fraud. Investigative reporter James O’Keefe rendered has proven without doubt that prepared hordes of illegal “voters” can extensively damage the results of elections throughout the nation, just by claiming the identities of registered voters in those particular districts. Most Senators and House members are delinquent in stopping voter fraud, ID theft that seems to have no ending.
Is there no politician out there with a backbone to introduce a citizens ID verification card? Not just for voting, but applying for welfare benefits, drivers licenses and auto insurance and even to seek work? Or are Americans going to be intimidated by the special interest groups, trade unions, the church and the minority radical organizations who think everybody should have the right to vote. If prudent American citizens can get it together, they will recognize that the era of Socialism is on the way compliments of this President. Don’t just read the newspapers that are enveloped in lies and dishonest propaganda, surf the web using keywords—such as illegal immigration—ID theft, voter fraud and identify the predators in the Congress and seize their seats by voting them out? Call your state and US Senator and Congressman/women and insist they stop this travesty of our voting system.
TIME IS ALSO OF THE ESSENSE TO BOMBARD THE REPUBLICAN LEADERSHIP TO SPONSOR “ H.R. 2885 – Chairman Smith’s ‘Legal Workforce Act’ While Republican leaders of the House continue to block a vote on a national mandatory E-Verify bill, the Obama Administration has issued a statement that it is getting E-Verify ready to handle a big development, as the DEPARTMENT OF HOMELAND SECURITY (DHS) is Preparing for a 50-state Mandatory E-Verify Law.
ATTENTION MITT ROMNEY, IF YOU WANT TO WIN THE PRESIDENCY, INFORM THE PUBLIC OF VOTER FRAUD, THE ACORN ORGANIZATION AND ALL THE OTHER GROUPS WHO WANT OPEN BORDERS UNDER THE REIGN OF BARACK OBAMA ARE IN OPERATION AGAIN. OBAMA HAS ISSUED HIS ULTIMATUM OF WHICH HE WILL PASS AMNESTY IF HE WINS A SECOND TERM TO THE WHITE HOUSE. THE AMERICAN FEDERATION OF IMMIGRATION REFORM (FAIR), THAT A SECOND AMNESTY WILL COST TAXPAYERS $2.4 TRILLION DOLLARS TO FINALIZE IN SUBSIDES AND RETIREMENT. A 2013 AMNESTY WILL ATTRACT EVEN MORE MILLIONS OF PEOPLE AND INVITE YET ANOTHER MASSIVE INFLUX OF PEOPLE THROUGH CHAIN MIGRATION.
All 50 states and every voting precinct in America need to check their election rolls, as Non-citizen voting is a Federal felony and should be prosecuted? Some places that are currently involved in prosecution of Voter fraud and other instances of corrupted elections is in Sunland, New Mexico, the city of Vernon, California, South Bend, Indiana, Troy, New York and that’s just a few states involved in voter fraud. With no real oversight, how many more voter fraud incidents has escaped detection? One Naples, Florida voter admitted she was not a U.S. Citizen, nor a legal immigrant, but election records show she voted six times in the past eleven years. Voter fraud has boomeranged in the last decade and when illegal aliens admit they have voted multiple times and not sitting in prison, something is seriously wrong with our election system?
In this monumental voting year, non-citizens voting could affect the final battle in November. Even at the local level elections have been compromised. Using every piece of oral weaponry the Democrats do not want any changes to the Board of Election laws, evoking the usual rhetoric of racial profiling or the greatest ally that has divided the country branded ‘Political Correctness’. Every American Citizen should insist that new regulations be applied, that includes either an official picture ID or a federal issued biometric national ID card. With all the waste and corruption in Washington, every American citizen should be issued an identification document, similar to immigration and naturalization ‘Green Cards’ Granted to permanent residents.
The U.S. citizenry must come forward and must connect with the TEA PARTY “THE PEOPLE’S PARTY” to stop the erosion of legal rights, which are being reduced by this administration. Remember the TEA PARTY is tens of millions of patriotic members in chapters across our nation. This political splinter group from the GOP does not discriminate against any race, color, religion as long as you entered the United States legally. Both parties have abused immigration enforcement, by neglecting to secure the border fence and the incompetence of acknowledging that ID theft is out of control, that every illegal alien is committing a felony by using a U.S. victim’s Social security number and identity in the majority of cases, but nothing has been accomplished to halt these financial issue. Females cross the borders and fly from other countries smuggling in their unborn, knowing full well that the U.S. taxpayers are forced in court appointed unfunded mandates for taxpayers to cover costs.
You forget that illegal aliens, who file a tax return, get the money back because they don’t earn enough in most cases. In addition, illegal aliens are very well versed in fraudulently stealing people’s ID and then getting reimbursed with the victim’s tax money. They have also figured out to get reimbursed for non-existent tax child payouts, to the tune of $4 billion plus dollars a year.
Obama had a Democrat Congress for his first couple of years in Congress and he did NOTHING on immigration reform. That was his best chance (if he cared, which, of course, he doesn’t). If anyone believes he intends to lift a finger (other than turning a page in a speech) over immigration reform, well, I’ve got a bridge spanning the East River to sell you. Anyone who votes for Obama because he or she supports what Obama is talking about is a fool.
TC – You seem quite convinced you are right. Obama admin used all their cache on Healthcare “reform” and they didnt expect such a backlash… if he gets his congress back they will use this new “mandate” so go for broke. and yes – I guess I am buying the bridge… Immigration “reform” will be on the table!
