Kris Kobach could not attend West Point because of diabetes, but he regards his efforts on immigration as a substitute for military service.
Kobach helps draft proposed laws and, after they are adopted, trains officers to enforce them. If the laws are challenged, he goes to court to defend them.
His most recent project was advising Arizona officials on a new law that empowers police to question anyone they suspect of being in the country illegally."

Kobach worked with our elected officials to help draft this bill. The majority Latino is our elected officials all over the state which listen to the majority Latino base of people.
"Kobach helps draft proposed laws and, after they are adopted, trains officers to enforce them."
He's a guy that helps draft/design bills ie: "Kan. lawyer is architect of many immigration laws" so they are made legal. Basically saying all the legal action being taken against AZ is probably going to get smacked down as it looks like AZ has been barking up this tree for a few years now.
"Kobach spent several years consulting with its main sponsor."
Any other questions?
