Immigration at Townhall.com

John Hawkins looks at for issues "too hot to handle":
The Melting Pot is Broken.
Mexico is a Bad Actor.
How Do We Tell The Radical Muslims From the Moderate Muslims?
Our Immigration Policy Should Focus on Bringing in the Best and Brightest.
 
Chuck Norris on how the Founding Fathers handled immigration
...our Founders enforced four basic requirements for "enrollment and acceptance" into American citizenry. We still utilize them (at least in policy) to this day, but we desperately need to enforce them. The Heritage Foundation summarizes: "Key criteria for citizenship of the Naturalization Act of 1795 remain part of American law. These include (1) five years of (lawful) residence within the United States; (2) a 'good moral character, attached to the principles of the Constitution of the United States, and well disposed to the good order and happiness of the United States'; (3) the taking of a formal oath to support the Constitution and to renounce any foreign allegiance; and (4) the renunciation of any hereditary titles."

Just think if such immigration tenets were taught in schools such as Live Oak High School, in Northern California, where kids are confused about allegiances to flags and countries.
