President Gives Speech Regarding Immigration:"These remarks were uttered by the president in a speech about immigation and what can be expected from those who come to this country in hopes of a better life........
"In the first place we should insist that if the immigrant who comes here in good faith becomes an American and assimilates himself to us, he shall be treated on an exact equality with everyone else, for it is an outrage to discriminate against any such man because of creed, or birthplace, or origin. But this is predicated upon the man's becoming in very fact an American, and nothing but an American...There can be no divided allegiance here. Any man who says he is an American, but something else also, isn't an American at all. We have room for but one flag, the American flag, and this excludes the red flag, which symbolizes all wars against liberty and civilization, just as much as it excludes any foreign flag of a nation to which we are hostile...We have room for but one language here, and that is the English language...and we have room for but one sole loyalty and that is a loyalty to the American people.'
By President Theodore Roosevelt in 1907 that is. Yet when we request these few things from immigrants today, be them legal or illegal we are labeled racists or alien phobes etc etc. I say get with the program or get the hell out.Filed under illegal immigration
