 The Obama administration will stop deporting young illegal immigrants who come to the U.S. as children, a move that President Obama said would "mend" immigration policy and which is likely to push the battle for Latino voters to the forefront of the presidential campaign.The Friday morning announcement was touted by the president and his allies as a major step toward a more humane deportation policy. Immigration activists have long pressured the White House to act to protect young immigrants who were brought to this country illegally by their parents and have been forced to live in the shadows or face deportation.Obama, who has been looking for ways to energize his electoral base, announced the decision in the Rose Garden, seizing the news cycle on a slow Friday afternoon a week before he is slated to address a group of Latino officials in Orlando, Fla.“These are young people who study in our schools, they play in our neighborhoods, they're friends with our kids, they pledge allegiance to our flag. They are Americans in their heart, in their minds, in every single way but one: on paper,” the president said in remarks that were frequently interrupted by a reporter’s shouted questions. Just when you thought it couldnt get any worse..OBAMA STRIKES AGAIN.
