Obama makes some good points but his concern for the 12-20 million illegals is totally misplaced. To do this job in a systematic way, no police need to be used. Private contractors can do this job and all costs can be recovered from the illegals, their employers or their homeland governments. If a program of that nature were to put into place, self-deportations would accelerate and employers would start unloading their illegal employees. We just need to get on with it using the mismatch/duplicate ssn letters to begin the process of identifying the illegals where they work. We also need to detain them immediately and expedite the hearing and appeal process so no illegal spends much time in detention facities. It would amaze some and chagrin others how effective this program could be. I suspect that at least half of the illegals would be gone within a year. Now is the time to do it as our economy turns down. Minor children, regardless of citizenship, should always accompany their parents if they are deported. What parent would want to do otherwise?
