So is President Obama the hardest working man to occupy the White House? I’m just saying, dude has got some hustle. I’m glad to see him following up on this pledge to engage on immigration. Obviously, he has a political/demographic interest in keeping the ball moving, considering the growing influence of Latino residents and voters in the country.
