Obama Tells La Raza: “The idea of doing things on my own is very tempting, "

President Obama was speaking pandering to the La Raza Conference when he made this comment,

“The idea of doing things on my own is very tempting, I promise you, not just on immigration reform. But that’s not how our system works. That’s not how our democracy functions,”

President Obama hasn't had a problem doing things on his own when it comes to having EPA regulate CO2 after the Senate failed to pass Cap-and-Trade. He is also trying to backdoor amnesty by using changes in ICE policies.

(CNN) — America’s immigration system is broken, but only a bipartisan political movement can fix it, President Barack Obama said Monday.

“The idea of doing things on my own is very tempting, I promise you, not just on immigration reform. But that’s not how our system works. That’s not how our democracy functions,” Obama told the National Council of La Raza.

Speaking at the organization’s annual conference in Washington, Obama said passing immigration reform measures will require support from both sides of the aisle in Congress.

“Let’s be honest, I need a dance partner here, and the floor is empty,” he said.
