What about London, Paris and other cities in USA. I thought she is pro refugee immigration unlike some countries like Poland. Why change in her stance now? That is not fair for people already here.
The federal judge was ruling on a case that had nothing to do with Obama's XO, maybe you should read what your own link states. So why didn't the courts follow through on the judges decision.
There is nothing illegal and unConstittuional about the "ban." If it was illegal and unConstitutional for Trump, then it was also for Obama. Where was this judge then, when Obama did the exact same thing?
well..except that Obama never had a "ban". He signed the appropriation bill which had inserted in it HR158 sponsored by a tea party republican which revoked the visa waiver program for four countries, it was a 'must pass bill' which means that in order to sign the appropriation bill that bill couldn't be stripped from it. But in any case, Citizens of those Countries could still travel to the US but they needed to get a visa to do so.
And the 1965 update to the Immigration and Naturalization Act, clarifies that people should not experience preferences or discrimination on account of their "race, sex, nationality, place of birth or place of residence."
Trump's EO grants religious preference to Christians and targets seven majority-Muslim countries
The Judge who issued this is a solid republican appointed by Bush.
so if the higher courts reverses the judge stay and ok Trump's order as legal under the constitution, the liberals will accept the court's ruling or hit the streets to protest?
He absolutely did. In fact, the list of countries, unmentioned in Trump's ban, are the countries that Obama listed in his. You need to educate yourself. You are uninformed.
Obama never had a "list of countries" The list which was originally four countries were in a bill HR158 sponsored by a Republican, there was no 'ban' of anyone in that bill, it removed four countries from the visa waiver program. Anyone affected could still travel to the US by obtaining a Visa.
Yes the power to enforce the law/constitution to the peoples that fall under the jurisdiction. Immigrants have no Rights or protection under our constitution until they gain entry into the US and even then it's limited. I fail to see how the judiciary branch has authority in this matter. The section you cited specifies what jurisdiction the Federal courts have and in no way does that section specify foreign nationals on foreign soil being protected under the law/constitution.
In 1965 Congress added the following to the Immigration and Nationality Act "no person could be 'discriminated against in the issuance of an immigrant visa because of the person’s race, sex, nationality, place of birth or place of residence'."

Thanks for the compliment, but I don't represent all liberals so it would be difficult for me to answer that

Can't speak to others, but I would be fine with it. I just find it unlikely. If it does I expect it will be more limited in scope then the original one.
I know that reading this it seems like a lot of folks on the right arent a fan of our form of government, and seem to want something that makes our president have unlimited powers though.
