If immigration were drastically reduced soon, there would still be hope. But as there is no push to do so, even from our ‘conservative’ House of Representatives, I think we will soon pass the demographic point of no return.

The 1965 Immigration Act changed the demography of this country forever. Supported by the likes of Ted Kennedy, the Act was intended to make America look like the rest of the world. By 2019 half of the children 18 and under will be minorities as defined by the USG and by 2039 half of the country will be minorities.

The 1965 Immigration Act: Anatomy of a Disaster

Currently, 1.6 million legal and illegal immigrants settle in the country each year; 350,000 immigrants leave each year, resulting in a net immigration of 1.25 million. Since 1970, the U.S. population has increased from 203 million to 310 million, i.e., over 100 million. In the next 40 years, the population will increase by 130 million to 440 million. Three-quarters of the increase in our population since 1970 and the projected increase will be the result of immigration. The U.S., the world’s third most populous nation, has the highest annual rate of population growth of any developed country in the world, i.e., 0.977 percent (2010 estimate), principally due to immigration.

That is what we should be pushing for, above everything else. If we don't stop illegal immigration, deport illegals already here, start a moratorium on legal immigration, and eliminate anchor babies, absolutely nothing else is going to matter.
