Even Mitt Romney, who self-deported himself out of a winnable 2012 election said, “If someone comes here and gets a PhD in physics, that’s the person I’d like to staple a green card to their diploma, rather than saying to them to go home.”

If only we had given Admiral Yamamoto a green card instead of sending him back to Japan after he graduated from Harvard, we might have won WWII

Oh wait, we did win that war. Never mind.

Reagan Biographer Firm Signs on for Communications, Strategy for Scott Walker Super PAC

"As he’s become the 2016 GOP presidential campaign’s clear frontrunner—before even announcing a candidacy—Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker’s 2016 team just made a huge pickup, Breitbart News has learned exclusively.

Shirley & Banister Public Affairs will be handling strategic communications for Walker’s Super PAC, the Unintimidated PAC, and providing historical context that will prove crucial for the campaign. Since the firm’s two partners—Craig Shirley and Diana Banister—are extraordinarily connected among major players in the conservative movement, they’ll be filling a key gap in Walker’s growing team of influential staffers.

“One of the hallmarks of SBPA is we only work with people with whom we agree and we not only agree with Governor Walker, we admire him,” Shirley said in an emailed statement to Breitbart News. “He is a conservative, he is honest, ethical, tough and principled. We are proud of our new association with Governor Walker.”

The firm has been active in the conservative movement since 1984, helped Reagan’s re-election, has represented groups like the National Rifle Association, Tea Party Patriots, the Club For Growth, and more.

It’s worth noting that communicating in the new media world is much different than working with dinosaur-era old media, and it takes a certain kind of savvy to do it. Many other campaigns are working on doing the same thing, trying to bridge gaps into the conservative movement and media......"

When they mention Procter & Gamble, we Cincinnatians have a little bit of history on the subject. Both were born at about the beginning of 1800, a mere decade after the Constitution came into being. An Englishman and an Irishman, both were pre-assimilated, since our culture was their culture, and a few short years before had been a part of their country. So when this article talks about the great businesses formed by immigrants, we are talking about teenagers who came to this country in a different era. They were here a dozen years before their mutual father-in-law talked them into combining their candle and soap businesses.

In other words, they had trades they practiced, and did not come to this country and mooch. Believing a moocher is going to start something other than a methamphetamine business is pie-in-the-sky economics.
