Celebrating the ethnic diversity of America, President Barack Obama said more than two dozen foreign-born service members who became U.S. citizens at a White House ceremony on the Fourth of July are vivid reminders that the country is, and always has been, a nation of immigrants.
He said the vast range of backgrounds and experiences that made America a melting pot for more than 200 years also makes it stronger, but that the immigration system has to be retooled for the U.S. to keep its place as the greatest nation on earth.
"If we want to keep attracting the best and the brightest from beyond our shores, we're going to have to fix our immigration system, which is broken," Obama said...

Those poor chilluns - something terrible has afflicted their hands. They’re all crippled up!
Don’t make it easier for the worst and dumbest to come here.

I’ll go out on a limb here and say everyone reading your Post agrees 100%. I doubt even a “smidgen” disagree.

"We need highly skilled tech workers, landscapers, and restaurant workers like MacDonald workers, so we must legalize all the 11 million illegals already here." What a bunch of crap.
Let me see if I have this right: Tech companies argue that we need the best and the brightest techs from places like South Korea, China, Taiwan, and India so that we can compete against smart people in South Korea, China, Taiwan, and India?
Say what? If we get the brightest from those countries, who is left in those countries, the not so best and not so brightest?
it means that, in a sense, people from those countries are now competing against themselves. So then who is left in those countries to compete against those techs that move to the US? Nobody. How crazy is that thought?
I can hear the tech teachers in Asia telling their students: "A tech background is the quickest way to get a green card and become an American citizen. Then Later you can bring the rest of your family to the US." What crap.
And then this happens: Those bright people leave the American companies to start their own tech companies in America, and the vicious cycle of recruiting new foreign Asian tech workers starts all over again.
NOTES:
1. European techs: have you noticed that most of the new techs come from Asia, especially India? Why is that? What is wrong with European techs? Aren't they smart enough?
Let's be honest: If I told you that most of the new techs would come from Latin American countries like Mexico and Brazil instead of from Asia, you would laugh in my face.
2. Microsoft: We must demand that tech companies like Microsoft set up programs---has Microsoft and other tech companies ever heard of internships---to recruit American tech workers, many of them unemployed but anxious and eager to work and learn.
3. "immigrants do jobs that Americans won't do": I can't think of many tech jobs, especially entry level tech jobs, Americans won't do.
4. Statue of Liberty: We should point it towards Asia, and instead of saying "Send us you poor...", we should inscribe something like this:"Send us your smartest and brightest tech people and your richest people who speak English..." Sarcasm.
5. German techs: I bet that if the US government said that the vast majority of new techs would now come from Germany instead of Asia, the American public would suddenly become very scared, and they would protest that we can't have all these Germans here because they would try to take over the country and start a war.
Asian countries would also protest that if the US limited the flow of techs from Asia, Asian countries wouldn't have any room for all the techs that their schools are now graduating and thought they were going to the US.
1. BREAK US IMMIGRATION LAWS AS A FOREIGN NATIONAL
2. GET US CITIZENSHIP.
Perfect photo response.
Maybe Obama missed the story of the tech who had to teach his own job to poorly educated foreign immigrants so that he could be fired and the lower-paid foreigners given his job.

What about our best and brightest? They are going to have to pay for these invaders.
President Scabies is sooooo full of it.
For a country of 330 million, and with trillions of dollars spent on education, you’d think the best and brightest can be found here with the best universities in the world.
STOP ALL IMMIGRATION NOW, END ANCHOR BABIES AND DEPORT THE 40% OF ILLEGALS TOO WHO OVERSTAY THER VISAS.
OUR LEADERS HAVE SOLD US OUT. TRY THEM FOR TREASON!
The FOOL!!!! They can’t come here because they unlike the flood of Obamanites are trying to do so legally. Educated immigrants with skills we can use are kept away while Obamanite Welfare Thugs are given the official U.S. Government Welfare welcome mat and allowed to jump ahead of the line. We’re getting Latin America’s Street Thugs thanks to Obama.
But they will vote for more welfare, more socialism, and more immigration, to vote for more welfare, more socialism, and more immigration, to vote for more.........
Don't we already bring in more than a million legals every year, already?
Legal immigration is killing us, has killed us, why do you think politicians are terrified of fighting immigration.
The reason is that 10s of millions of legal immigrants vote, and they vote to continue replacing us through bringing in more democrats, and for more welfare and abortion, and whatever the left wants.
It was JFK’s goal, Ted is just the one who got it passed after his brother’s death.
I’m not sure what they exact number of legals are. I do know of a family that’s been trying to legally come here to live and become citizens {through due process} for years. They are non Latin American. Each time someone walks over the border illegally it sets back legal immigrants who want to be Americans and acclimate. Doofus in Chief can’t grasp that though.
Everyone here knows that we are being beaten not by the democrat party and the left, but by the legal immigrants that vote for them.
"This chart tracks the number of people who annually are granted legal permanent residence (also known as getting a green card). Green-card holders are permitted to live and work in the country indefinitely, to join the armed forces, and to apply for U.S. citizenship after five years (three if married to a U.S. citizen). As of January 2012, an estimated 13.3 million green-card holders lived in the United States, including an estimated 8.8 million eligible to become U.S. citizens."
