Levin: the problem is assimilation

California in the mid to late 1990s... 59 to 41 percent approved Proposition 187 in 1994. A federal judge blocked the implementation of virtually all sections and IIRC sat on it for years refusing to act -- a Democrat replaced Wilson as governor and promptly worked out a deal to drop appeal action.

"Former cabinet secretaries Bill Bennett and Jack Kemp attacked California Governor Wilson for supporting Prop. 187. [saying that] immigrants are 'natural Republicans' [and] Wilson risks turning the Republican party into a party of protectionism and xenophobia. According to Bennett, 'its assimilation, stupid'--meaning that the major problem is not the number or type of immigrant entering the US. Instead, Bennett argues that fears that newcomers will not integrate into American society result from "too many" programs such as bilingual education that, he argues, promotes multiculturalism.

Not mentioned here is Jeb Bush in California with them calling us supporters of Prop 187 stupid, racists, xenophobes . . . .

I believe Mr. Levin will agree that there's now too damn many to assimilate -- exactly the problem the feds fixed 100 years ago.

I do not know how much of a Party man Bennett is to agree or not agree that there's now way too many of both legal (of the refugee, etc type cited by Senator Sessions as being one million green cards annually) and illegal.
