And there is video of Slick Willie talking about border enforcement and the problems of illegal immigration. Back in the '70s and '80s similar quotes can be found from many, or most of today's prominent Dim politicians.

But some time around the late '80s and early '90s they realized that they were losing big time among the citizens of many generations, and that if they didn't flood the country with Third World immigrants, legally and illegally, that would no longer be a viable political party.

Strictly political opportunism. You sure can't accuse any of these Dims of having any consistent standards or principles, or any concern about what their policies will do to this nation in the long run. Just looking toward the next few elections.

“We are a nation of immigrants.. but we are a nation of laws. Our nation is rightly disturbed by the large numbers of illegal aliens entering our country…

“Illegal immigrants take jobs from citizens or legal immigrants, they impose burdens on our taxpayers…

“That is why we are doubling the number of border guards, deporting more illegal immigrants than ever before, cracking down on illegal hiring, barring benefits to illegal aliens, and we will do more to speed the deportation of illegal immigrants arrested for crimes…

“It is wrong and ultimately self-defeating for a nation of immigrants to permit the kind of abuse of our immigration laws that has occurred in the last few years.. .and we must do more to stop it.”

President Bill Clinton 1995 State of the Union address,
