KINGSTON, Jamaica – The next four years are being touted as the “grand legacy phase” for United States (US) President Barack Obama and some influential Jamaicans in the diaspora are suggesting that the signposts already erected by the country's 44th commander-in-chief augur well for their countrymen living in America.
As Obama prepared to deliver his second inaugural address, one expert predicted immigration reform that is likely to favour Jamaicans could be a reality within the next 18 months.
“This is legacy time for President Barack Obama,” declared Irwin Clare, co-founder and managing director of the Queens, New York-based Caribbean Immigrant Services, ahead of the inauguration ceremony.
