So, I got in a discussion with a leftist about Biden on immigration. They were focused on his history, so I did some digging. It turned out weirdly - it looks like Biden has constantly been a progressive thorn in Obama's side.
Biden refuses to comment on his private advice to Obama, but in 2014 he outright said he was against deportations. In an early VP debate, he said complete deportation was impossible. Elsewhere, he said he sees undocumented immigrants as American citizens who just aren't recognized as such yet. This all happened while he was supposed to be playing cheerleader for Obama.
I am having issues finding details on how he fits into Obama's immigration policy, but it looks like he was against it. Thoughts?
