Biopolitics K
The project of modern politics is one that normalizes the state of the exception, which allows the juridico-political system to be transformed into a killing machine.
Gregory 06 Derek: PhD, Peter Wall Distinguished Professor, and Professor of Geography at the University of British Columbia in Vancouver. “The Black Flag: Guantánamo Bay and the Space of Exception” Geografiska Annaler. Series B, Human Geography, Vol. 88, No. 4 (2006), pp. 405-427. Wiley.

Biopolitics dooms us to indistinction that allows fascism, ethnic cleansing, genocide, and the horrors of the concentration camp to be made real. Although not apparent, the creation of homo sacer through biopolitics is running a hidden course like a secret river through the democratic system
Agamben 1998 Giorgio: Professor of Philosophy and Aesthetics at the University of Verona Homo Sacer: Sovereign Power and Bare Life. Translated by Daniel Heller-Roazen. P. 120-123.
Our alternative is to embrace Whatever Being - we should disengage from traditional politics and using sovereign power to grant rights, instead, we should embrace the indistinguishable character of being.

Immigration reform will pass, the House is more likely to pass immigration reform after the primaries are over.  Immigration reform is inevitable.

WASHINGTON (CNN) -- 

Economic decline causes war
Royal, 10
(Jedediah, Director of Cooperative Threat Reduction at the U.S. Department of Defense “Economic Integration, Economic Signaling and the Problem of Economic Crises,” in Economics of War and Peace: Economic, Legal, and Political Perspectives, ed. Goldsmith and Brauer, p.213-215)
States, and thus weak Presidential popularity, are statistically linked to an increase in the use of force. In summary, recent economic scholarship positively correlates economic integration with an increase in the frequency of economic crises, whereas political science scholarship links economic decline with external conflict at systemic, dyadic and national levels.5 This implied connection between integration, crises and armed conflict has not featured prominently in the economic-security debate and deserves more attention. This observation is not contradictory to other perspectives that link economic interdependence with a decrease in the likelihood of external conflict, such as those mentioned in the first paragraph of this chapter. Those studies tend to focus on dyadic interdependence instead of global interdependence and do not specifically consider the occurrence of and conditions created by economic crises. As such, the view presented here should be considered ancillary to those views.
