National Council of La Raza sees no debate in fully integrating 'Americans-in-waiting'

Of course the National Council of La Raza (NCLR) believes there should be no debate about “quickly and fully integrating” Latino immigrants into American society, but what’s this business about “Americans in waiting”? A little presumptuous, perhaps? To be honest, we’re not certain if the White House picked up the term from NCLR, or if La Raza adopted it from the White House.

In February, Twitchy noted that President Obama was attending a “private” town hall meeting to field questions from illegal aliens about his stalled push for executive amnesty, which was billed on the White House website as, “Taking Action to Unlock the Economic Contributions of Americans-in-Waiting.”

If people, who cross the border illegally are not Illegal, then what are they?

@chuckwoolery @GlockLady Obama calls them "Americans-in-waiting". I say lawbreakers should do their "waiting" in their country of origin.

That, or simply “Democrats-in-waiting.”
