Former Official Reported in Line as “Border Czar”

“The Obama administration will name former Justice Department official Alan Bersin to oversee its policy on illegal immigration and drug-related violence along the U.S. border with Mexico, Politico reported on Tuesday…. A former U.S. attorney in San Diego, Bersin served previously as ‘border czar’ to former U.S. Attorney General Janet Reno, the report said.” (Reuters, Wednesday)

Any government job that seems czar-like can’t be illegitimate.
