yesterday, we told about college park, maryland, where illegal immigrants have the right to vote in the elections. that's the beginning of a much larger trend. we consider total confidence that letting illegals vote everywhere and all elections will be a mainstream democratic position within five years if not much sooner. anyone who opposes it will be called a racist. bet money on in it. the dividends in such a strategy are just too obvious. there are, by the ways, ways to make a daca compromise that might improve this country. once given legal status, dreamers will be eligible to legalize their family members through family unification, meaning the amnesty will end up covering millions, not just a few hundred thousand. a real daca compromise would explicitly ban this possibly make it clear that legal status will only be offered to dreamers or not any of their extended family. a real daca compromise could also require that beneficiaries

and not just exclusive to immigrant rights advocacy groups. you have to engage with law enforcement. what will hopefully be a very constructive engagement. i had the pleasure of engaging with the police chiefs in the major cities and small cities in california. they tend to be more methodical, thoughtful solutions oriented individuals. obviously there's other facet said or limits within the law enforcement community that are highly pliticized, highly charged with the rhetoric out sthf department of justice. and i say so because sheriffs are elected. they're not selected by mayors or accountable to a city counsel or manager but you have to engage in very earnest negotiations and your own colleagues, your own peers within your own party, legislative branch. and bring them along too. it's unfortunate because the dialogue is so zen phobfoe xeno. the way they've used immigrants and have really hade the narrative such that these are all what immigrants do here and whether it's california, texas, iowa or here in washington. i would say amplify your c

i was inspired by dreamers going out there and putting themselves at risk, demanding for immigrant rights. i knew i had such a personal story but i was a citizen child and i hadn't heard that story. - yeah. - like so many stories, this was just another one of so many stories. - right, but because it's your story and because we know you in another context and because everything you do we look at and go, "oh, let's pay attention to her," as opposed to the average, random person. more people are going to pay attention to your story than to the other stories. - well, i did feel it was important because of this new platform that i had with orange is the new black and jane the virgin and people were starting to interview me and i was starting to come on shows and i thought there was a need to talk about something important. - i love it when people use their power for good and not evil. that's always a good thing. - yeah, i always wanted to be a good guy. - that's good. the decision to do this book actually goes back long enough that you may have had some sort of nostradamus-like abilities. your

accepted and viola would become a so-called dreamer and she took a leap of faith what's more as an immigrant rights activist she encouraged others to do it too so eight hundred thousand registered and now we have eight hundred thousand names of fingerprints photographs addresses all the details of these undocumented immigrants and the important thing is that obama did this by executive order so it could be immediately overturned from trump by executive order never went through the congress so these people were always vulnerable they should have never given their data over to the government like that obama promised to protect them nothing was done on the legislative front to make this law so now it's could be done away with it was always a policy never a law well this is why strict privacy laws are in in effect. particularly in places like germany ok germany after world war two they enact a very strict privacy laws because remember in another lens pre world war two the citizens were forced to give all their data to government in order to help them to protect them and then the germans were marched in
