The Mistake Destroying a Nation

The 1965 immigration legislation was based primarily on a policy suggested by President John Kennedy in his short book, A Nation of Immigrants. After his death, legislation was ramrodded through Congress by Senators Edward Kennedy and Robert Kennedy.

Those who opposed the legislation and correctly predicted its horrific impact on America's future were, of course, branded racists. Ordinary American citizens weren't even aware of what was happening.

At Chalmette (a subsidiary of ExxonMobil) a security guard in a white pickup truck with "Homeland Security" in orange spray paint on the side told us, "Exxon doesn't allow any photos of the refinery to be taken, even if it's in the background."
