'We should not be in the business of building barbed wire detention camps.

Detentions are cruel, costly, and against our values -- especially for families.'

Immigration issues is where O'Malley really shines. I hope he gets a chance to talk more about this on the campaign trail because this is where he gets passionate and shows us his compassionate side. We need to see that in our candidates.

I am looking forward to the debates and campaigns...we have exciting candidates, unlike the clown car. I started out knowing the least about O'Malley, but I sure like what I am learning about him.
