At least since James Polk, who never wanted to be nominated for president in the first place, promised to serve only one term, accomplished all his campaign promises in the first 4 years (including bringing Texas into the Union), and stepped down (and died 103 days after leaving office)

No matter what Obama does either way on immigration, Hispanics aren't going to turn out in large numbers for a Republican--worst thing that happens is they stay home.

As a libertarian, my views on immigration differ greatly from most on this board, but bypassing Congress (on this or any issue) isn't the way that immigration reform should happen--it only increases the power of an already too powerful executive branch and is contrary to the Constitution.
