Obama's actions tonight will set him apart and in the company of the all-time great US presidents. I'm proud to be living in the time of this great man and great humanitarian. He's gearing up for a Republican fight but his lawyers are ready. Keep in mind folks that he is proceeding within his legal authority. He's not granting amnesty and no one will receive permanent residence or a green card.
All he's doing is granting temporary work authorization and a reprieve from deportation. There is no path to citizenship or any comparable legal status.
