Look at the application pools for almost any doctoral programs in business and science --- count how many are domestic applicants.

Well, you've got a pool of applicants from around the world (4.75 billion people) versus a domestic pool from only 300 million. Of course the ratio will be in favor of foreign-born applicants. We need to protect our own citizens first, and not let their hopes and aspirations be overwhelmed by the swarm of non-Americans who want to live and work here.
