The Constitution does not include the word immigration at all.

No, but the men who wrote it were quite explicit that they didn't want "the huddled masses" and the "wretched refuse" immigrating here from "all nationalities".

They understood the document was quite novel and not suited to govern anybody from anywhere.

If you have access to any linked documents that show this, I’d like to see them.
