Maybe even read Death Of the West.

Does Pat Buchannan recommend immigration as a solution to low birth rates?

BTW the US fertility rate is just about 2.1, which is what you need for a stable population. We are making enough babies now. We don't need to import people.

The US birthrate fell below 2.0 in 1971. Prior to that time it was dwindling. It stayed below 2.0 until 2001 when it inched back above. The climb back to above 2.0 is attributed to the high birth rate among hispanics and asians.

Did you know that there are more hispanics entering this country via the birth canal than crossing the border?
