So is this how Capt. Von Trapp felt when he knew his beautiful Austria was going to disappear forever?

Tie immigration to unemployment level?

Why in the world would anybody tie immigration to anything!

People from all over the world come here to transform themselves into AMERICANS.

Why would you prevent somebody from becoming an AMERICAN based on a government number!

That’s like saying we should tie childbirth to interest rate!

Same affect: it would make the creation of Americans dependent on a GOVERNMENT statistic!

You want to let the GOVERNMENT decide something like this? Whatever happened to the free market? What about our PRINCIPLES?

They’re Americans when they become Americans. Taglines notwithstanding.

Exactly! As soon as their paperwork is complete and processed and they take the naturalization oath, then BOOM! Brand new AMERICAN!

That's the beauty of LEGAL immigration.

"All men are created equal" are the 5 most sacred words ever put to paper. We are all EQUAL. No difference. Those "Chinese" immigrants you CLAIM were loyal to China are just as AMERICAN as YOU!

Issue a million visas to the residents of Karachi Pakistan and its all “Legal”. Still poison to bring into any western Country but “legal”

If it's LEGAL, I support it. As Conservatives, we should all support it.

There's nothing "poison" about being an American.

Sounds like good ol' fashioned racism to me.

Too many of those immigrants are simply colonists, that’s why. They come here to take, mot to contribute to this grand experiment.

Their loyalties are still with their homeland. That Bullshiite needs to change.

So it's time to LEGALLY turn off the spigot of indentured servitude.

Sounds to me like you want to stop immigration.

That’s un-American and racist.

I detect anti-Semitism.

That's a heck of a thing to say on the day a great AMERICAN, Sheldon Adelson, passed away and will be buried in Israel.

Shame on you.

You act as if the requirement to be an American is to "contribute."

The awful things you say about new Americans is just disgusting.

They're as American as you, me, George Washington, Rush Limbaugh, Sebastion Gorka, and Dennis Prager.

Doesn't matter if they "contribute." You seem to think there's a checklist of things one must do to be an AMERICAN.

I feel sorry for you and your identity politics.

Immigration was stopped in the 1920s .

I favor drastic reduction, more than 90%

You’re a libtard. I believe in big tent Conservatism. All men are created equal and yearn to be free.

Just because someone just happens to be born in another part of the world doesn’t mean he can’t be an American if he has American values.

Patriots don’t have skin color, and all Patriots bleed red. President Trump has said these exact words. You be be a RINO Never Trumper.

Hey, even Jesus said to an immigrant woman, “let the children eat first”.

He understood the concept of priorities.

You lack basic understanding, so I will be taking my cues from the Man Who was God in the flesh rather than a whackadoodle poodle like you.

That is the question. Hammerstein was of Austrian ancestry. This song was personal to him. And, he was on his deathbed from colon cancer when he wrote the words

I function in the realm of Faith; which includes faith in solid, proven principles and in the average American’s bred-in-the-bone understanding of our Constitutionally guaranteed rights and Freedoms.

You write as if we are a place like Russia in the early 20th century, which had no enshrined tradition at all of civil rights and freedoms.
