No doubt, one of the next big issues we will tackle in 2010 is Immigration Reform. No surprise here, but the Obama Administration will want to open the borders rather than close them, and Obama and SEIU will want to offer some type of ammnesty program for the current population of illegal immigrants in America.
Many people, most with good intentions, will ask, why not? Well, there are a host of reasons to say "NO", but among these are some Population Projections to check out.
Depending on a whole host of factors, with immigration reform being key, the country will no longer be majority white by mid-century. No doubt some folks, particularly minorities, might say "Good" or they might say "It's about time".
But they might want to stop their parochial mindset on the majority composition out of pure self-interest. Most immigrants have been attracted to this country and have remained in this country for the opportunities it represents versus the places they have come from.
This country and the opportunities it represents were founded primarily by white, christian, western European people who brought the best of western civilization with them and through the Providence of God, improved on that with Christian concepts of freedom, liberty, and natural rights. And that is the synthesized culture which has continued to make America great.
It is well known in historical circles that if a country loses touch with its cultural roots, it will founder. Therefore, those who cheer a loss of the white majority might ask themselves are they willing to trade that for a loss of the culture which attracted them in the first place and tends to bind them to stay here?
