Good article, and timely as it relates to this post of mine on another thread:

See Post #78

Immigration is a major problem, but it isn't the biggest threat to "Red State America" at all. We need to be better Americans before we complain about immigrants.

We have been importing large numbers of legal and illegal 3rd world people since Teddy put the screws to us in’65. We have become so diluted, it’s no wonder so much of our population is pro-open borders.

That's B.S.

I'm actually surprised to see a number of MSM reports in recent days indicating that recent immigrants are actually some of the strongest opponents of illegal immigration here in the U.S.

It's not immigrants who want open borders. It's f#%&ed-up white people whose families have been here for generations.

Pat has been warning us of the consequences of mass immigration since the early 1990s. If the status quo remains on legal immigration, the Dems will become the permanent majority party within a decade. There is a reason why the Dems have won the popular vote in six out of the last seven Presidential elections.

This kind of mas migration is a threat to ALL of America—regardless of how we vote—or even it we vote at all.

The tail end of the circus below our southern border is not afraid to use weapons to achieve their demands. This group shot at police in southern Mexico when their demand for buses was not met. The result was buses were supplied. Many Americans will lose their lives to this lawless circus should they be released into the U.S. May the will to stop them be the priority we have been told it will be

I don’t disagree with you, but I believe URBANIZATION plays a much bigger role than immigration in national political changes over a long period of time in this country.

BS. Mass immigration is the cause of much of our drug problems. Drug use is a symptom of the disease of hopelessness. Our political elites have not protected the interests of its citizens. Mass immigration is being forced on the American people. Most don't want the current levels of legal immigration and they want illegal aliens removed. Three quarters of Americans lack a college degree. They are the ones competing against immigrants for jobs, housing, services etc.

One note of caution....though in this country “hispanics” are treated as though they were one ethnic group, they are in fact, no such thing anymore than “Americans” are an ethnic group. Many “hispanics” are.....wait for it......White. They - to the great frustration of Leftists - often consider themselves to be White and after a couple generations are indistinguishable. Their ancestors were obviously just as European as those of the majority of Americans.

That said, obviously we cannot absorb an uncontrolled flood of immigrants nor do we have any responsibility to serve as Latin America’s dumping ground for all their people they can’t take care of.

These people have shown nothing but contempt for our rights to our homeland, our rights to self-government, or our cultural heritage. Every American who cares about an American future should rally behind the firm resolve of President Trump, "to preserve us a nation," the goal referenced in the fourth--the triumphant--verse of the Star Spangled Banner!

In our prayers, by our votes--by every acceptable means, let us do what each of us can, to validate our President's resolve, next Tuesday!!

Perhaps They want to live in red States because Dems have destroyed prosperity in blue states.

Amen

” To the frustration of egalitarians, the meritocracy of free and fair competition in this most diverse of great nations is producing an inequality of rewards and a visible hierarchy of achievement.”
Politically, continued mass migration to the USA by peoples of color, who vote 70-90 percent Democratic, is going to change our country another way. Red state America will inevitably turn blue.

HOW LONG will folks of achievement continue to SUPPORT a herd of lessers?-—— To put it BLUNTLY ! They all know how to turn on the lights,but have no damn idea what it takes to get that power to them !!....I suspect the best will migrate to who knows where when that time arrives ...rather than be ‘servants to their lessers’ who will achieve power thru ‘democracy’..MOB RULE ..End of RANT >>>

“Among the reasons Donald Trump is president is that his natural political instincts are superior to those of any other current figure.”

But, Paul Ryan and the rest of the feckless RINOs all keep saying that he is doing this all wrong. We will find out next Tuesday.

There. Fixed it.

Excellent post.

Anyone who defiantly refuses to assimilate and then complains about the country that is giving them welfare and an opportunity at success is not someone to allow into this country.

Immigrants rose from starting as low paid railroad laborers, garment sweatshop workers and dock hands and became leaders,business success stories and professionals. These earlier immigrants did not whine and criticize the amount of welfare and medical benefits or paid days off-—they had none to worry about. And no anti-discrimination laws.

We don’t have to take on the problems of all the world’s people trying to come here illegally.
Even ones hiding behind rows of women and children holding teddy bears pushing into the border.

Thank you!

Immigration changes the country demographically. In 1970 89% of the population was non-Hispanic white; today it is 63%; and by 2043 it will be 50%. In the era of tribal politics, this will impact the kind of country we will become. How many will feel allegiance to the vision and value of our Founders, i.e., those old, racist white men who wrote the Constitution? Will the fabric of this country be torn apart ala Rhodesia or South Africa? When whites become the minority, how will they be treated? Better than now as a majority?

87% of the 1.1 million legal immigrants we bring in annually are minorities as defined by the USG Since 1990 we have brought in 35 million legal permanent immigrants, the equivalent of the current population of Canada. In 1970 one in four was foreign-born in this country; today it is a little less than one in 8, the highest it has been in 105 years; and by 2023 it will be one in seven, the highest in our history.

We have just had three of the four highest decades of immigration in our history, with the last two decades being the highest in our history. The numbers are great, which hurts assimilation. And the Dems are making it more difficult to assimilate with their identity politics.

“Children of foreign diplomats, though born here, are not citizens.”

What’s the basis of that? Is it written into law? If so I’d like to see the law and see if it singles out this group or if it is more broad.
