The source URL points to a video done by Dr. Krauthammer before his death last year. I had not seen it before, and it's worth watching.

I disagree with one point: After getting a grip on illegal immigration, he suggests total amnesty for those 11 million who are already here. I would make the following change: Starting today, and lasting for a period of one month, anyone who is an illegal needs to register as such with a to-be-named existing Federal Agency. Only those who are registered within that time frame will later be given amnesty. All others will be expelled upon discover...no exceptions, no boo-hoo we're meanies arguments. They had the chance and chose to ignore it.
He was a Free Trader and anti Trump. I had no use for him.
To call it horrible implies you have a viable alternative. I don’t like it either, but he’s right: politically, they are not going to be thrown out. So, what’s the best compromise, not the best solution.
This was supposed to be done under the 1986 “Amnesty to End All Amnesties”. Border security and workplace enforcement in exchange for a huge amnesty. The security and enforcement never happened. The exact same thing will happen again unless amnesty comes after the last mile of wall is installed and e-verify is enforced with the seriousness of the IRS.
The law should be enforced. Period.
Chuck was such a Beltway Hack he couldn’t imagine anything other than the Swamp direction and priorities.
I saw an article on the subject last year, and it said that less than 30% of the illegal aliens covered by that amnesty ever bothered to normalize their situation by getting a green card or citizenship. In other words, 70% of these people had no interest in "amnesty" at all.
E-Verify, no freebies...adios!
No amnesty at all. None.
You got it!
Trump already offered that - total amnesty, but no voting rights
AND THE DEMS REJECTED IT
I am referring to the current Asylum law. S law.Sorry. Amnesty on auto pilot.

Yes, Charles K. was keenly intuitive and also witty, and, he achieved great things having his terrible injury and disability. But there was regularly a haughtiness in his remarks that was not needed.
He was a GREAT guy nonetheless.
He is missed.

Often in life a greatmany people who have gone through or are continuing to go through constant pain and discomfort display an impatience and intolerance toward foolishness and weak-minded thinking. Charles was one of those people.
God bless him.
