OBAMA: THE DEPORTATION KING

Although President Obama strongly pursues immigration modernization, few seem to know that he is the deportation king in the meantime (http://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2013/02/22/us/politics/growth-in-deportations.html?wpisrc=nl_wonk&_r=0)

Although there was a steep increase in the annual number of deportations By President W. Bush, his peak year (his last year) was about 360,000 deportations, up from about 180,000 in his first year.  The first three years of the Obama administration averaged just under 400,000/yr and in 2012, the number of deportations topped that number to about 410,000.
