Obama in 2014: Latinos ‘Mow Our Lawns, Make Our Beds, Clean out Bedpans’
Del Sol High School, Las Vegas, Nev -- Nov. 21, 2014:
BARACK OBAMA: "Now, this debate deserves more than the usual politics, because for all the back and forth in Washington, as I said last night, this is about something bigger. This is about who we are. Who do we want to be?
"America is not a nation that accepts the hypocrisy of workers who mow our lawns, make our beds, clean out bedpans, with no chance ever to get right with the law. We’re a nation that gives people a chance to take responsibility and make amends, and then create a better future for their kids.
"America is not a nation that should be tolerating the cruelty of ripping children from their parents’ arms. We’re a nation that values families, and we should work together to keep them together."
