I am curious as to why the founding fathers, jefferson, washington, franklin, etc. are legal immigrants and people whom you don't like are not.

Race baiting already? No dice. The problem isn't race; it's rate.

Basically, these guys got in a boat and just showed up and presto, they were legal, while after 1920 or so, you could not do that.

All the people you listed were born the thirteen colonies. None were immigrants. They placed restrictions in the Constitution that no foreign born person could be President too.

Yesterday's Supreme Court ruling in Demore v. Kim was an important step in the right direction.

Once again, the 5-4 decision emphasizes how important it is to maintain a conservative majority on the Court.
