And almost all the immigrants ...Irish, Swedish, etc. European and now Indian, etc. were exceptional people especially today with the stricter requirements than in the past.
I know because I have relative that became an American citizen and the work they had to do the time and money to become a legal citizen makes them even more pissed
that people lump us as "ANTI-Immigrant"! We are as most Americans ANTI-ILLEGAL... that gross distinction is lost on the MSM as it plays to all those people that don't
want Americans to succeed. These anti-Americans don't seem to understand ...America was founded by "immigrants' that wanted to have a chance their homeland didn't provide...i.e. to prove the immigrant's exceptionalism! That's what makes America exceptional...the people THAT want America to succeed and come to America to have success!
Sure, legal immigrants might be largely the elite of their countries, but what about illegal immigrants?
Oh, and that doesn't mean that legal, or illegal immigration don't cause problem?
Both groups have been documented to have some issues.
I.E Legal immigrants are more likely to be on welfare, while Illegal immigrants are less likely to pay taxes.
Both groups put pressures on the system, be it schools (Especially since most immigrants have more kids)
That doesn't even begin to speak of some of the gangs, or the undermined wages cut down to size by immigrants willing to work cheaper.
