Yes, a very bad Amendment, and a politically deranged idea for Conservatives.

If Bartley were still alive today and still pursuing the same goal, I would denounce him just as you have.

But, between 1965-1995, immigration was not a major issue, and Bartley was a passionate and gifted defender of just about every other thing I believed in.

“But, between 1965-1995, immigration was not a major issue, “

You mean it wasn’t a major issue for you.

It was already a major issue in California long before 1995, which is why Prop 187 passed in 1994.

The people of California had already experienced a deluge of illegals and we were fed up with GHW Bush and Clinton’s refusal to enforce the penalties included in the 1986 Reagan amnesty. So we passed a state law to do what Bush and Clinton refused to do.

And had either of those useless Presidents done what the law requires of them instead of ignoring it then the problem would not have grown geometrically. The fact is that they ignored the law and instead followed the advice of the border-despising Bartley, whose name should be synonymous with treason motivated by greed.
