Obama: Government Using Illegal Immigration to Score ‘Cheap Political Points’
Carolyn Hileman | February 22, 2008
The issue of immigration shouldn’t be used as a “political football,” Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama said Tuesday. Obama spoke at a rally in San Antonio, a city with a heavy Hispanic population. Obama said the government should be trying to come to a solution on the issue rather than trying to score “cheap political points.” Obama says border security has to be combined with a pathway to citizenship for people who are already in the U.S. Obama’s statements were met with cheers. Before his address, some in the crowd chanted “Si, se puede!” — the Spanish equivalent of “Yes, we can!”
