He's even promising that if they manage to get here illegally before age 15, there's Dream Act college waiting for them and they can apply for financial aid which of course they'll get ahead of American students.

You don't try to resolve the problem by encouraging them to come and bringing up the word amnesty frequently.

Though do your research and the facts will tell you the truth. I'll even give you one to start with

Obama sets all-time deportation record — RT
Deporting those already here is not protecting the border which is what I was responding to.

Please explain to me how all these troops sent by Obama have stopped the wave of illegals from entering.

It's a win-win for the illegals. If they commit a very violent crime, instead of facing long prison terms, they are simply sent home where they can easily return and with a whole new set of stolen identity documents.

Actually the accomplishment if arresting and deporting more illegals shouldn't be hard, seeings that the numbers of illegals have increased dramatically since he became president.

They have nothing to fear. DHS and the WH already said if they are not felons they won't be deported.

Yeah but they left out a tiny piece of data in that report.
That this "record" was achieved, not by hunting them down in the US and deporting them, but by turning them away at the border.

And after that "banner year" deportations PLUNGED due to the new policy of only deporting felons

That is what happened to two of the three in this case who were arrested for disrupting the meeting and then released because they have no "criminal" history (other than illegally entering the country.) I guess it would have taken up too much of our resources to go and hunt them down.
