Obama picks his policy wonks

The Obama transition team has been quiet on immigration reform, as evidenced by our post on Rahm's speech. But a sign of things to come was unveiled when the Policy Working Groups were announced.
On Immigration, we have Georgetown's T. Alexander Aleinikoff and Stanford's Mariano-Florentino Cuellar. This is a good move, as both have previously researched and supported better ways to deal with migration as they understand it in its global context. You can see how smart they are by reading their CVs: Aleinikoff and Cuellar.
That's it for today, I'm off to read some Aleinikoff legal theory on citizenship and membership, and maybe grab some lunch.
