“So who DID write “A Nation of Immigrants”?

JFK or one of his confidants. Either way it reflected his own opinions. This was when he was Senator.

“Why did the GOP of the mid 1960’s roll over and play dead?”

Because unlike the clueless claims of talk radio the 1960s GOP was far from conservative. It was dominated by Dirksen moderates and Rockefeller liberals. That’s the group who helped Lyndon Johnson pass his nation-altering Immigration Act and Civil Rights bill.

They despised Goldwater conservatives and some openly supported Lyndon Johnson in the 1964 election. California’s Thomas Kuchel being a prime example.
