The law requires immigrants to have documents at all times and makes it mandatory for law enforcement to question anyone they believe may be in the state illegally.

The Vice President also admits the federal government has not done enough to stop the constant flow of illegal immigrants from entering the United States. He said, "I know that's why states like Arizona are so frustrated. Our immigration system is broken but the President and I believe that a state-by-state approach is not the way to fix it. This is a federal responsibility we have not lived up to."

Biden was the keynote speaker at the democratic fundraiser. About 700 people attended the event, including Phoenix Mayor Phil Gordon and Attorney General Terry Goddard.


Phil Gordon is a dumb ass im starting to lose my faith in obama i saw he said the situation is too tender to deal with right now
Obama should take it easy right now.... the amount of protests and boycotts going on, the last thing we need is more fuel added to the fire, which could set this to a blaze.

Let it cool down, see what happens in AZ - then step in and deal with it.
