Following a bad political week for President Obama, ranging from former President Bill Clinton issuing statements contrary to President Obama's position and Obama's own political gaffe when he said "the private sevtor was doing fine", the President has changed the narrative by issuing an executive order to stop the deportation of illegal immigrant children.
Hispanic/Latino voters, who will play a pivotal part in the November elections, welcomed the news, while many Republican leaders in Congress were critical of the action, some even calling the action unconstitutional.
Nonetheless, the announcement has put Mitt Romney in a box, as the presumptive Republican nominee realizes he must move closer to the center and he needs Hispanic/Latino votes to win.
Romney will have his opportunity to respond when he appears on CBS "Face The Nation". Romney will also have the time to tout his bus tour, which to date, has drawn little attention.
Senator Linsey Graham (R-S.C.), one of those critical of the President's action, will also appear on "Face The Nation" along with former Vermont Governor and DNC chair; Howard Dean.
White House Senior Adviser David Plouffe makes the rounds, appearing on four of the morning political talk shows.
The planned discussion appears to be absent or weak on major foreign policy events, ranging from the critical elections in Greece and Egypt, to the continued violence in Syria.
More attention needs to be given to the failed austerity measures taken by Europe and how that portens to the United States economy.
The testimony by JP Morgan Chase chief executive Jamie Dimon also deserves more scrutiny than it is receiving. It will be discussed on Bloomberg TV "Political Capital". The multi billion loss reported by JP Morgan Chase, resulting from risky trading in derivatives, highlights the need to reinstate the "Volker Rule" and the "Glass-Steagall Act".
