WASHINGTON (Reuters) - President Barack Obama sought to rally frustrated Latinos on Thursday with a firm promise to keep fighting for immigration reform and a renewed pledge to take executive action this year to reduce deportations of undocumented immigrants.
After enraging many Hispanic voters last month by delaying a change in immigration policies until after the November midterm elections, Obama has faced widespread condemnation from a voting bloc that helped him win the presidency in 2008 and 2012.
Latinos remain critical to Democrats' hopes of holding onto the White House, not to mention Obama's legacy, so the president said he would use the coming weeks to gin up support among the U.S. public for another shot at reform.
Always tell someone how you feel because opportunities are lost in the blink of an eye but regret can last a lifetime.

These people need to calm down. The President is dealing with a predominately Republican Congress whose number 1 agenda is to destroy all potential legislation under President Obama's term. It's very childish and the President know if he were to put forth any ideas right now, Republicans will use it as a political chess game to get more appearances on cable evening news programs. America doesn't have a fully functioning government and I never thought I would witness an entire party come together for the sole purpose for dismantling all legislation and ideas associated with a President. That to me is anti - American.
