Propoganda pure and simple...Even the author admits as much.

Now, before you go and jump off a bridge about the possibility of an Executive Order, remember that my opinion merely represents the ramblings of a lone columnist toiling in the obscurity of California’s San Joaquin Valley.

Others—better versed and more scholarly than me—strongly disagree.

A New York lawyer, Henry Lenoir, has said that an Executive Order legalizing illegal aliens would be a distortion of the presidential power to pardon.

As Lenoir concluded:

"After all, illegal though they are, illegal aliens haven’t been federally convicted of illegal entry and residence, so there is nothing he can pardon."
