Ok I have been looking into this and I can't seem to find an aswer, I have a very close friend of mine who is an immigrant, who is for lack of a better word illegal, she applied for a DACA, which is part of the DREAM ACT, She had to get the courage to pretty much let the Government know she has been living in this country illegally since she was 9, and she just turned 31, she has a college degree and is a contributing member of society. Her DACA was accepted, meaning she couldn't be deported. The point of this is she had to register with documented proof that she is living illegally in the United States, and if this gets defunded and the next step would be repealed what will happen to her and the other folks who took the leap of faith so to speak.

This is not a matter of on the job training, Obama is an arrogant imperialist. I suspect that he is not going to leave office voluntaringly. Not now and not when his 4 years are up either.

1) I doubt this was actually illegal. Obama knows the laws well. He has the degree from one of the strongest laws schools in the world after all. Even if, from some viewpoints it might seem illegal, there are either loopholes or some extra conditions that make it legal. He is already having too much scandals, so I doubt wants more of these. I believe it to be just a "made-up scandal" by some opponents. I do not know the laws of US well enough, although the illegality of it seems to be questionable.

Get real? Those who ignore history are bound to repeat it.
History has shown us repeatedly that we, the people, cannot depend on the military (who reports to the President) to do what is right. Citizens are too divided, too lazy, and too ignorant to really understand when they must take charge and by the time they do realize this (historically speaking) it is too late. This is exactly how leaders abuse power, each abuse setting a new precedence for the next.
That is why the recent actions against the Media, particularly AP and Fox reporters, is so particularly disturbing...the first step towards shutting up the media allowing the Executive Branch to abuse even more rights and freedoms guaranteed by the Constitution. A Constitution which is looking more and more like a piece of used toilet paper.
For the average Joe it is too easy to ignore things that do not directly affect them and then they can go on about their daily lives blissfully. If they come for your neighbor will you stand up to them? If they come for your relative, will you stand up to them? If not then who will stand up for you when they come for you?
Imperialist...apparently... Does the website not let you know when you are misspelling a word? Or do you just ignore it when it does?

Now...Seeing as the President did not do anything illegal, and nothing that other Presidents haven't done thousands of times..issuing directives via executive orders on how to enforce existing laws...
It seem to me what the GOP did was send a symbolic EF You to the hispanic community.
Goog luck with that in the next election. How's that attitude been working out for them thus far?
BTW - My bad...It was not an Executive Order...
The President did not create a new law, sign an executive order or grant anyone citizenship or amnesty, he merely directed DHS to exercise discretion to grant deferred action to qualified immigrant youth—an action that is well within his power as President.
Putting aside ridiculous critiques from fringe groups (think “dictator, tyranny, treason”), others have mischaracterized Obama’s administration’s discretion directive as an “executive order” or “new law.”

Guess what buddy? People have been saying that Obama is going to ban all types of weapons and that he's going to declare Marshall law since he took office back in 2008.
NONE of that has happened and all of the "predictions" made by conservatives have not come about. If you believe every fear mongering rant on this website then I truly feel sorry for you. You must be living a nightmare inside your head!
Unveiling a 98-page election post-mortem, Republican National Committee Chairman Reince Priebus promised a kinder, gentler GOP that will not write off any voters. That begins, the party said, with Hispanic voters and immigration reform. Read more: www.washingtontimes.com... Follow us: @washtimes on Twitter

I predict 2014 and 2016 will be the same as 2012. Republicans will continue to lose power because of their refusal to learn from their wrongs in not being more inclusive of Hispanics, gays, blacks, women, and youth.
Peace

What's wrong with you?
Maybe if you guys had stood up against EOs in the past they wouldn't exist at all. Why wait until a man you dislike uses them.....
and really, have you guys read any of his EOs? I've read them all....
The only bad ones are ones that were already enacted by previous presidents.
FAR from tyrannical, and anyone saying that is a dumbass.

Lol so you think Obama will try to implement some type of law that will extend his term limit or maybe even try to eliminate it?
I hope he's not that arrogant.
