Leftist Foundations Fund Open Borders Agenda
Right Side News ^ | July 18, 2009 | Phil Kent

My research concluded that, along with the environmental groups that peddle fear and flawed science, the most popular recipient of massive foundation money is the vocal open borders and "multicultural" lobby that, among other things, backs amnesty for 15 million-plus illegal aliens and so-called foreign "guest worker programs.

This lobby consists of numerous foundation-supported advocacy groups seeking to change the demographic composition and culture of the United States. One of the most militant is the National Immigration Forum, which received over $3.3 million in grants in 2004 alone from the Ford Foundation, the John D. and Catherine T. MacArthur Foundation, George Soros' Open Society Institute and even the Fannie Mae Foundation.

The Forum, which works with U.S. senators like Edward Kennedy of Massachusetts to secure congressional passage of illegal immigrant amnesty, was founded by civil rights attorney Rick Swartz and mightily assisted by Harriet Schaffer Rabb, a Ford Foundation trustee and co-director of the Immigration Law Clinic at Columbia School of Law. Swartz as replaced as executive director in 1990 by someone even more radical- Frank Sharry, who previously headed the Boston-based Centro Presente. That august group assisted Central American "sanctuary" movements that hid immigrants from the law and supported the pro-Communist Sandinista dictatorship against the Reagan administration-backed Contra insurgency in Nicaragua.

This is why we have to revise our laws so that Foundations go out of business in 10 to 20 years, and then any residual is passed on to the closest 500 blood relatives.

You don’t mean to say that leftist foundations with leftist board members fund leftist causes. That’s not cricket.

In regards to our border with Mexico, I'm certain that others found it extremely puzzling that during the Bush II years the borders were left porous.

Equally disturbing was how the two border guards were treated by Bush's administration for shooting a Mexican drug dealer in the butt.

The entire Mexico-Bush administration scenario made it seem as though there was interest in keeping the border unsecured. Perhaps there was a monetary interest. If so, the stakes must have been high for such a risk to have been taken. But then the political class believes the American electorate to be extremely stupid.

Now the Obamaites have the franchise.
