Will President Obama pardon the 11 million illegal immigrants who have been criminalized by staying here illegally?

Just an idea I heard Chomsky suggested.

    Nope he can't do an amnesty by executive order.

    @my2cents, it wouldn't be amnesty. It would be a pardon for the crime.

    Liberals are hard at work making it not a crime so no pardon needed. Remember open borders and all that jazz? This post was edited by O-uknow at December 30, 2016 7:21 PM MST

    Great idea, but Oh how people would scream. "Why should they have the same rights I have? They would just misuse them too!"

    Hello M:

    The president cannot order blanket pardons.

    They have to be caught and charged to get a pardon. We don't see that happening. Methink the Liberals are still trying to convince everyone its not even a crime so no pardon is needed.
