Immigrant Gino Speranza says Americans are right to be wary of immigration β βThe issue today is, Shall the American spirit be of your fathers, or will you let it all be compromised for different people?β
The U.S. at this time held over 30 million unassimilated immigrants, written 1925. The tide had recently been stemmed, but the invaders were still in the gates. We today have a similar conflict, and must similarly ask: will we let perpetuate and prosper the good our nation's fathers had, or will we consent to unwanted change?

Lothrop Stoddard: Alienism is the enemy of Americanism. The alien-minded see America as mere land; the instant any person sets foot on it they can now be as 'American' as the rest of us.

βThe most important factor in my Administration was my insistence that the executive power was limited only by specific restrictions and prohibitions appearing in the Constitution or imposed by the Congress under its Constitutional powers. My view was that every executive officer was a steward of the people bound actively and affirmatively to do all he could for the people. I declined to adopt the view that what was imperatively necessary for the Nation could not be done by the President unless he could find some specific authorization to do it. My belief was that it was not only his right but his duty to do anything that the needs of the Nation demanded unless such action was forbidden by the Constitution or by the laws. Under this interpretation of executive power I did and caused to be done many things not previously done by the President and the heads of the departments. I did not usurp power, but I did greatly broaden the use of executive power.β

Being weak on crime was a problem before our time too, and so was the misuse of welfare for the worth-less:
βThe inefficients, the wastrels, the various cripples are preserved at public expense. The criminal is turned out on parole after a few years, the insane is discharged as "cured".β β Popenoe & Johnson. It is imperative we involve ourselves to enforce the philosophies we support, or the soft hand of sympathy will guide everyone toward failure.

"You can be a Communist or you can be a Patriot. You cannot be both. As for those who peddle marxist lies about our heritage, who tell our children we live on 'stolen land' or say our heroes were oppressors, they're doing something much worse than slandering our pastβthey are attacking our future.
They are trying to tear down the great American character, to destroy the people who declared independence, who crossed the Delaware, who settled the West and conquered the skies. Our ancestors did not shed blood so that a band of lunatics could loot and pillage our nation. Our heroes died to build the greatest country ever in the world."
President Trump says, for America's 250th year of Independence.

Lee promoted the strictest immigration laws in U.S. history, and believed if a people did not make a good playmate, they were not fit to assimilate. Take time today to learn your history and love those who tried to make it better.

In the early 1900s, immigrants and their advocates, their descendants and the people who felt for them put sob stories, cries of cruelty in the news to hinder our immigration laws and halt deportations.
