        Obama is giving his response to Donald Trump et al. Right now. Using the presidency to do so.

        He almost certainly will make no mention of the Republican frontrunner. But, on the morning of the debate, there's no doubt what he's doing.

        Obama talked about Native Americans as the only Americans who are not immigrants & and about slaves, who had no choice in coming here.

        Obama just listed off immigrants' accomplishments, effectively saying, "Immigrants, they get the job done." Cc: @Lin_Manuel

        "We succumbed to fear," Obama says of WWII internment camps. Noting that those who ran the policy were immigrants: "How quickly we forget."

        Obama referenced JFK needing to convince folks he wouldn't be controlled by the pope — but made no mention of the questions asked of him.

        This seems to be notable mention/silence. Given Trump's role in continuing the birth certificate attack, perhaps an intentional silence.
