Obama Speech (Briefly) Touches on Immigration

Obamabarack Senator Barack Obama, in a speech before more than 80,000 people last night, accepted the Democratic Presidential nomination.  Here is his brief reference to immigration:   

“You know, passions may fly on immigration, but I don’t know anyone who benefits when a mother is separated from her infant child or an employer undercuts American wages by hiring illegal workers. But this, too, is part of America’s promise — the promise of a democracy where we can find the strength and grace to bridge divides and unite in common effort.”

Any thoughts from our readers?
