U.S. Making Mistake Of Not Able To Retain Talented People: Obama

"So one of the things that we talked about in the comprehensive immigration bill was how can we provide greater incentives and opportunities for young people with great talent and higher degrees to be able to stay here - particularly in areas like math and science and technology, where we know that right now we don't have enough engineers, we don't have enough computer scientists," Obama said.

Obama said there are a lot of foreign students who come here to study. The fact that they come here to study doesn't automatically qualify them for legal residence or U.S. citizenship, he said.

"I don't foresee a circumstance where suddenly anybody who is going to college here automatically is qualified for legal residence," he said.
