In the recent elections
the Republican Party has won the majority of the senate and now has control of
a vital section of government along with the House of Representatives. This would
make the Democratic Party not very powerful in the next few upcoming years.
President Barack Obama, a democrat, knows his time of having favor in congress
is coming to an end so he is trying to do what he can with his time left. From Election
Day to the time the new senators take office President Obama has 2 months with
the lame duck senators, who are a majority democrats to do work and get things
done that republicans would most likely not be in favor. Also another thing he
is doing is trying to set the stage for the next democratic president. He’s doing
this by trying to pass a plan concerning immigration that could grant papers to
millions of illegal immigrants. Also it would provide certain security and safety
of relatives and family members being deported. Families with illegal relatives
would worry less about their loved ones getting deported. So now that the Democratic
Party is trying to help the immigrants the Republican Party has no choice but
to do the opposite. The Republican Party will most likely take the stance of
tightening borders and cracking down on illegal immigrants. So all the peoples who
know, have a relative, or are associated with an illegal immigrant, who are
they going to be voting for next presidential election? This is going to give
the Democratic Party a huge boost next election. I wonder if President Obama is
genially for the illegal immigrants or if he’s doing this just for the presidential
race. The title, President of the United States in not just a title but a responsibility
and a promise to try and make the U.S a better place. If president Obamas main accomplishment
b passing this plan is to help the Democratic Party I think that’s a problem. Why
is the leader of a country more worried about whether or not their team wins
rather than doing what they are there for and helping the country?
