This debate has made it clear that both Clinton and Sanders want to get to the left of each other on immigration. Not only do Hispanics make up a substantial proportion of the Democratic vote in Florida, but Latinos have shown a willingness to adjust their opinions of politicians based upon their immigration stances. President Obama, for instance, saw a 12 percentage point bounce in his approval rating after signing an executive order offering temporary legal status to immigrants here illegally in 2014. Other Americans barely shifted their view of Obama during the same period, suggesting there was no penalty for Obama for his actions.
