Former Vice President Joe Biden said at a campaign event in Iowa on Tuesday that illegal immigrants in the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program are “more American” than most of their U.S.-born counterparts because they do well in school.
“These kids have come, they’ve done well, most of these kids — there’s a lot of them, and they’re not just Hispanic, they’re Asian-Pacific Islanders as well. and they in fact have done very, very well,” Biden said at the event, held in Ames, Iowa.
“In many cases, they’re more American than most Americans are because they have done well in school. They believe the basic principles that we all share. I think they should, in fact, put on a path to citizenship.”
Biden said Monday at an election forum that he does not support deportation for illegal aliens who are arrested for drunk driving.
“You only arrest for the purpose of dealing with a felony that’s committed, and I don’t consider drunk driving as a felony,” he said.
DACA, which former President Barack Obama enacted through executive order, defers deportation for illegal immigrants who were brought to the U.S. as children.
Biden unveiled an immigration plan in December 2019 that included a path to citizenship for illegal immigrants. Biden said at a campaign event Jan. 7 that illegal aliens would have to learn English before qualifying for citizenship.

Pete Buttigieg Tells Woman Her Pro-Life Views Not Welcomed In Democrat Party
By Ryan Saavedra - The Daily Wire
Democrat presidential candidate Pete Buttigieg refused to tell a Democrat voter on Sunday that her pro-life views were welcomed in the party after being repeatedly pressed about the issue during a Fox News town hall event.
“I am a proud pro-life Democrat,” Kristin Day, a member of the audience, told Buttigieg. “So, do you want the support of pro-life Democrats, pro-life Democratic voters? There are about 21 million of us, and if so, would you support more moderate platform language in the Democratic Party to ensure that the party of diversity and inclusion really does include everybody?”
“Well I respect where you’re coming from and I hope to earn your vote, but I’m not going to try to earn your vote by tricking you,” Buttigieg responded. “I am pro-choice and I believe that a woman ought to be able to make that decision. I know that the difference of opinion that you and I have is one that we have come by honestly and the best that I can offer, and it may win your vote, and if not, I understand, the best I can offer is that if we can’t agree on where to draw the line, the next best thing we can do is agree on who should draw the line and in my view it’s the woman who’s faced with that decision in her own life.”
Fox News host Chris Wallace interjected: “This is an interesting moment because President Trump spoke at the March to Life movement, he was the first president ever to actually appear at the March to Life movement, and I’m curious, Kristin, were you satisfied with the answer you got for the mayor?”
“I was not because he did not answer the second part of my question and the second part was: the Democratic platform contains language that basically says that we don’t belong, we have no part in the party, because it says abortion should be legal up to nine months, the government should pay for it, and there’s nothing that says that people have who diversity of views on this issue should be included in the party,” Day responded. “In 1996 and several years after that, there was a language in the Democratic platform that said that we understand that people have very differing views on this issue, but we are a big tent party that includes everybody and so therefore we welcome you, people like me, into the party so we can work on issues that we agree on.”
“So my question was would you be open to language like that in the Democratic platform that really did say that our party is diverse and inclusive and we want everybody?” Day asked.
“Well I support the position of my party, that this kind of medical care needs to be available to everyone, and I support the Roe vs. Wade framework that holds that early in pregnancy there are very few restrictions and late in pregnancy there are very few exceptions, and again the best I can offer is that we may disagree on that very important issue and hopefully we will be able to partner on other issues.”

It must be tough being a pro-life Democrat when most democrats are brain dead.

Everything’s coming up Bernie.
A slew of new polls for Iowa and New Hampshire — the first two states to cast ballots in the race for the 2020 Democratic presidential nomination — show Democratic socialist Sen. Bernie Sanders in full surge. Iowa’s caucuses are a week from today, and New Hampshire’s primary a week from tomorrow.
The very latest poll for Iowa by Emerson put Sanders at 30%, former vice president Joe Biden at 21% and Sen. Elizabeth Warren at 11%. Sanders is leading in Iowa in the latest New York Times/Siena poll, too, at 25% to former South Bend, Indiana, Mayor Pete Buttigieg’s 18% and Biden’s 17%. That was a six-point gain for Sanders.
In New Hampshire, a poll released Thursday by WBUR-TV gave Sanders a commanding 12-point lead over his rivals, with Buttigieg in second and Biden in third. Biden is dropping in all the latest polls, but not as much as Warren, who is plunging late.
And another N.H. poll, this one by CNN/University of New Hampshire released on Sunday, showed Sanders has pulled out to a nine-point lead over Biden (at 16%) and Buttigieg (15%). An NBC/Marist poll published over the weekend also gave Sanders a 5-point lead over his rivals.
RealClearPolitics.com keeps a running average of all polls. In Iowa, Sanders has gone from 18% on December 1, 2019, to 25% this week, giving him a 3-point lead. Meanwhile, Warren has gone from 22.5% on November 1 to 13.5% this week.
“The rise of Mr. Sanders has come at the expense of his fellow progressive, Senator Elizabeth Warren: she dropped from 22 percent in the October poll, enough to lead the field, to 15 percent in this survey. Senator Amy Klobuchar, who is garnering 8 percent, is the only other candidate approaching double digits,” the New York Times wrote:
As the strength of the other leading candidates has ebbed and flowed, Mr. Sanders, making his second run for the White House, appears to be peaking at the right time. This month was the first time he has finished atop a poll in Iowa, after also leading a Des Moines Register-CNN survey two weeks ago. The Times-Siena poll’s margin of error was plus or minus 4.8 percentage points.
A victory by Mr. Sanders in Iowa, where he suffered a narrow loss to Hillary Clinton four years ago, would represent a remarkable comeback for a 78-year-old candidate whose heart attack in October threatened to upend his candidacy. It would also create a moment of high anxiety for establishment-aligned Democrats who are deeply alarmed about a potential Sanders nomination.
Iowa and New Hampshire are crucial to every candidate this year. Winning those two states will establish a frontrunner in a race that has seen many lead changes and no clear leader — until Sanders’ surge. As the Times stresses, should Sanders take Iowa and New Hampshire, he “could be difficult to slow.”
That puts Biden in a tough spot. He was expected to walk away with the nomination, but his faltering campaign and numerous blunders on the campaign trail have prompted Democrats to study the other candidates in the race.
Biden has run two other times, dropping out in 1988 long before the first states voted and bailing out in 2008 right after the Iowa caucuses — where he pulled in just 1% of the vote.

I'll be shocked if it breaks that way for Sanders. I really don't think it will.
I wanted to be a Monk, but I never got the chants.
We'll know in 6 more days.

It's just one primary.. Or am I missing something here?
After the first official votes get cast, if you as a candidate don't end up in the top 2 or 3, your fundraising dries up. Basically it means you are done.

Maybe wait until Super Tuesday to see what Bloomberg does.
I wanted to be a Monk, but I never got the chants.
Super Tuesday definitely thins the herd way down to the last few, but there will be several that will disappear after Iowa and New Hampshire on Monday.

There's an NYT headline today that reads "Our poll suggests Biden supporters aren't the caucusing type"
I wanted to be a Monk, but I never got the chants.
