Video: Will Romney change his stance on immigration?

>> from "time," marco rubio sent out a statement there's a brought support for agreement that we should figure out kids whourp undocumented through no fault of their own. today's announcement will be welcome news for many of these kids desperate for an answer,i it's a short-term answer. governor barbour says i just have a different upon that he he would espouse. i think the democrats on the left will try to make him sound lien anti-immigrant, which he is not. haley barbour differs with policy he says mitt romney has presented, but you have a lot of people who wonder where does romney assistant? and what is the exact language to even compare to what we've heard from the president.

>> this is highlighting the differing opinions within the gop, and to see it pouring out now is fascinating. romney has to live with a lot of statements he made, especially in the primary that would -- that was pretty tough on the immigration issue. you hear rubio come in really as the voice of reason.

>> but what is his voice of reasoning? what is the language from his proposed d.r.e.a.m. act. as wednesday it, we have the exact legislative language here, and romney would only say he would be well to review it, it's not as if there's something there to say yea or nay to.

>> there's not that much difference with the proposals ever since it was proposed. it's always been about what can we do for this group of people? they were brought to america as kids, they didn't make an informed decision to break a law and to come here.

>> they didn't enter the country under their own will.

>> right. 24er7 brought in by family in most daze. the writer of our cover story this we're, jose vargas, his mother sent him to the u.s. when he was 12 to live with his grandparents. he found his green card was fake when he turned 16. it's always been about this group of people, you can do an executive order that's going to be temporary, senator rubio can propose a variation of the d.r.e.a.m. act, perhaps something that doesn't give the past to citizenship that a lot of people would like to see, but accomplishes a lot of the same thin things.

>>> president obama 66%, governor romney 23%, but i do want to go back to the remark, in response to this, say there are millions of americans who are unemployed and to justify allowing illegal immigrants to work he feels is wrong on the administration's -- when you say you are out of work because of this illegal immigrant in this country, because of this child between the age of 16 and 30, you were out of work, and that sometimes results in some of the hostility sadly that we have seen when this conversation is brought up, but even marco rubio , senator republican, says that something needs to be done. everyone says there needs to be something done.

>> the biggest difference between marco rubio and the president's plans is marco rubio did have a plan for legal residency, so it was more of a long-term plan. i think that is why it still resonates. the president's plan is only two years.

>> so is mark rho rubio's plan? rubio says the president is offering a short-term answer, if you're saying rubio has a long-term answer, then is that a better plan?

>> i think so. at the end of the day , what you don't want to do is cede band-aid effects. instead you want to address it. what happens, though, it does deflate a lot of the rubio plan, because the president came out first. he's also saying at the heels of the supreme court deciding arizona 1070 , which basically gives the states the opportunity to discuss and to decide what immigration policy should be stateside, which i think is a little bit concerns and ants daunting that congress says, wait, wait, wait, mr. president you can't make the decision, that's congress. s.

>> back to the comparison, senator rubo saying there should be a long-term -- if latino voters see this as a band-aid will that cure the enthusiasm problem?

>> no, i think because the president came out first, it allowed him to use his presidential pulpit to say i'm creating policy in the absence of congress moving. that's where he's actually able to move ahead. he's going to be the buzz on the spanish language television and even on msnbc. he came out first. that's where romney gets deflate deflated. now, back to your question regarding lamar smith , i think that's a very good question, because what the president should have done is come out first, six or seven months ago, where the latino voters would have remembered what he did for the community and the moderate independent voters, who's on the fence, who is frustrated economically where they are, basically this would not -- this would have been a moot point, but the fact we're less than 150 days from the election and not addressing the economy and looking at perhaps catering to a population, may put him in a difficult position.
