comes out s says well, yes, he is being considered those reports are false. do we know what is going on here? does it really matter? >> well, first of all no one really know what is is going on because people up in boston are not going to tell anybody what is going on. it is still june and the convention is not until you know the end of august. so there is still plenty of time my guess is there isn't a lot of vetting any ways maybe there has been but you know, the people that are talking, don't know. so, i think it is really -- and of course, what is romney going to say yeah, that's right, of course he is going to have to come back and say yes, he is still on the list whether he is or isn't. no one knows. >> peter,. >> peter knows. >> what? are you holding back? >> the week after the president announces that he is going to put in place basically a version of the dream act which by the way rubio supported, and romney said he was going to veto, there is a little concern

amongst the romney camp about the hispanic vote. the notion which probably, i hate to say it, probably what was going on, he was not asked for any of this, but let me tell you this week he was asked. i mean it was not like jim says you are not going to say he is off the list. that would be -- >> ease personally right now. >> -- especially right now. >> right. >> you know, i think romney is being a little too -- >> i don't want to dwell on it too much one reason i ask does it matter rubio pretty much made it clear he is not interested he wants to remain in senate, et cetera. >> you know, everybody is going to say that. whether he is or isn't, he is a freshman senator, being vice presidential material, we had a freshman senator, but still, i think, i still think in this

situation, they still have time and you know, really the campaign, still needs to progress a little bit before they make final decisions they have to look at a series of different decisions both on a statewide basis, does that help the ticket, what demographics do they need the hispanic vote is very important, putting a hispanic on the ticket would send certain tickets putting a woman would send other signals, some body from the midwest, maybe some body from florida. all those things go into consideration before they make a consideration. lots to think about. >> peter you alluded to president's immigration plan now, policy that would allow certain illegal immigrants maybe up to 800,000 to at least delay deportation, we already have at least one representative, from arizona, proposing legislation to block this, is this -- were you surprised that the president came out with this plan at this

particular time? >> i tell you we had a meeting at the white house, on friday, right at the time of this announcement, and i tell you, the feeling in that room, was of universal appreciation, folks said, what a great decision, beautifully put together by the homeland security department. look, what do they want to do go after 15-year-old sophomores in high school, studying hard? is that what they want to put out? or go after folks that are breaking the law, that are potential terrorists. easy call for janet napolitano. this president, made -- it was a gut ski call but this is something, -- gutsy call but this is something if the republicans want to take it on, take it on. peter king from iowa says he is going to sue the president, on what grounds? >> well, jim -- >> yes, peter. >> how about this thing called the constitution. >> we debated it all the way.

>> what did he violate jim? >> congress passed a law he decided willie nilly we are not going to enforce some of these laws peter, this is race baiting at its best. you know -- >> who is doing race baiting? >> obama administration is. oh, i am sorry they can't do that. >> peter king. >> peter feen listen to me this is a cynical act by this president because he knows there are sections of -- there are going to be a lot of people upset about this situation including the congressman from arizona who happens to live down there and has the deal with this immigration program. no, there is a law in congress, congress passed a law now all of a sudden the president says we are not going to force this section of the law he can't do that. >> jim. >> he did it -- >> well, my point on this -- look, -- >> what -- >> as someone who comes to the united states as a kid, brought here, goes to school. this is a girl, graduating from miami high school, she is the

top of her class she is going to dart mouth she is not being deported i am very happy about that. >> how about all the people that come in legally, all the people that follow rules is it fair to them? >> they are not citizens every two years they have to renew this. >> what about the charge, that potentially it takes jobs away from americans who are looking. >> that's it. now we have all these kids another 800,000 people in the country, where are they going the find jobs? what is the president doing? this is a cynical move this isn't about jobs this is about votes. >> this is about fairness and doing what is right. >> here is -- this is the issue obviously this is something republicans will make hay out of >> i hop they come at us i really do. >> good. >> great debate. >> what's up. >> you've been warned sarah. >> thanks guys. time coming up 7:42 a.m., dcs mayor makes good on his pledge to give you a place to go to
