I will not Support the Re-Election of Barack Obama unless.....
WASHINGTON & SANTA FE, NM (By Jon Garrido, The Jon Garrido Network) March 31, 2011 ― Obama said, "With respect to the notion I can suspend deportations through executive order, that's just not the case. There are enough laws on the books by Congress that are very clear in terms of how we have to enforce our immigration system that for me to simply through executive order ignore those congressional mandates would not conform with my appropriate role as president."
Obama in his first year directed Janet Napolitano's ICE to deport 387,790 immigrants — far more than during George W. Bush's last year in office. If the trend line Bush’s enforcement structure set in motion continues, Napolitano is on pace to deport around half a million people a year by 2013.
Department of Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano, the head of deportations for Obama, has repeatedly denied the Obama administration has increased deportations. If Obama has no control over the level of deportations how could Obama and Napolitano increase the number of deportations undertaken by President Bush? The increase documents Obama has a tremendous amount of latitude prioritizing deportation levels.
Obama lied stating he has no control over deportations and Napolitano lied she has not increased deportations. Obama is playing a shell game with America's Hispanics to obtain voter support.
Regarding the 2012 presidential election with the present level of Obama and Napolitano deportations, I will not support the re-election of Barack Obama unless Obama does the following:
In 2008, Obama promised Immigration Reform in his first year as President of the United States, but Obama broke his promise. Obama in his second year in office promised Immigration Reform. Again, Obama failed to deliver Immigration Reform.
Today, with the significant Hispanic population increase, Obama sees the handwriting on the wall ― without Hispanic voters, he will not win re-election, but we will not forget Obama lied st ating he has no control over deportations and Napolitano lied she has not increased deportations. This article tells how Obama has deceived us: Obama is playing a shell game with America's Hispanics.
For 2012, Obama once again is promising Immigration Reform but I will not support Barack Obama's re-election unless the seven points below are achieved before the 2012 elections. Obama has no creditability with campaign promises so each of the items below must be delivered before the 2012 election.
1. Today, Obama must cut back the number of deportations to the number deported under President Bush. 2. Obama must admit his increased deportation enforcement strategy to achieve Immigration Reform was a flawed strategy. 3. End Napolitano's Secure Communities program that can deport any immigrant arrested by any law enforcement agency such as Sheriff Joe Arpaio for having a broken tail light. In Phoenix, Arpaio continues his sweeps arresting the undocumented working with ICE to deport all that are arrested. 4. Fire Janet Napolitano and John Norton. 5. Support the candidacy of Hispanic Democrats running for state and congressional offices before and during the primary by providing fund raising, campaign management and endorsements. It is national policy not to support any candidate in a primary where two or more are competing but if one non-Hispanic candidate was an established office holder, the probability of electing an Hispanic is lessen; therefore, the National Democratic Party to elect Hispanics to office must make exceptions. There is no better illustration of this than Senator Jeff Bingaman of New Mexico who in 29 years he served as the U.S. Senator from New Mexico never gave a speech advocating Immigration Reform. There may be non-Hispanics who vote for Immigration Reform but just voting for Immigration Reform will not get the job done. Strong advocacy is required and only Hispanic members of Congress will advocate Immigration Reform — not non-Hispanics. Electing a non-Hispanic Senator in New Mexico would be the same as electing another Jeff Bingaman. Does New Mexico want another 29 years of non representation? Hispanics are now the majority in New Mexico and now more than never, New Mexico needs an Hispanic U.S. Senator that will be the driving force to achieve Immigration Reform.6. Assure every committee of the National Democratic Convention be composed of the same percentage of members equal to the 2010 Census count on race. The 2010 Census counted 50.5 million Hispanics in the United States making up 16.3% of the total population. Each National Democratic Convention committee must have at a minimum 16.3% Hispanic representation. At the 2008 National Democratic Convention, only a handful of Hispanics were represented. Some committees had no Hispanic representation which is shameful! Some committees appeared to have been dominated by blacks. Why? Now because of the census data certifying the surge of the Hispanic community is now the biggest minority group in the USA, the black community wants to partner with the Hispanic community. Let them show sincerity by removing their dominance of the National Democratic Convention.7. For 2012, partner with a Mexican American Hispanic for Vice President who is a strong advocate for Immigration Reform. The entire United States must learn, Cuban and Puerto Ricans could care less about Immigration Reform. Immigration Reform is a Mexican, Central and South American priority.
Today, as in 2008, Obama is promising to pursue Immigration Reform. I will not support Barack Obama's re-election unless the above seven points are achieved before the 2012 elections.
