Live from DC , It's Mala (and P.S. Immigration Reform was killed, again)
14:19 H | Topics: Immigration - MBAPBSAllAmericaDem - Washington DC
I was on my way to Washington DC to cover the PBS All-American Presidential Forum (Democratic version), just as "comprehensive immigration reform" died, again. Not that I'm surprised, my coverage of the issue has been a series of "told you so's" because as I heard a commentator on FOX News say today (on the in-flight Direct TV it was Fox or Dora - both are screamy and annoying), the Republicans and their base have shown their power. Well obviously overwhelmingly white men who vote are going to have more agency than however many thousands of overwhelmingly Latino immigrants who cannot vote and hit the streets peacefully. I'm curious to see if and how the immigration issue is brought up tonight given the fact that the forum tonight is based off the Contract With Black America that mentions immigration and its relationship with the larger black community, um nowhere.

How about asking Obama why he supports the border fence?
