The (Bad) Memory of 1986 Writing for uExpress.com, Georgie Anne Geyer wonders why the President isn't more concerned about the emotional issue of true immigration reform and why every time it is mentioned amnesty for the 13-20 million illegal aliens in this country seems to be the central theme. The main problem is that the memory and betrayal of what happened to the last amnesty granted in 1986 still rings loudly for the majority of the American people. But Ms. Geyer, after attending FAIR's recent board meeting and hearing a speech by prominent historian Dr. Otis Graham Jr., professor emeritus at the University of Southern California, has some great advice for the President and the Congress - carry out immigration reform honestly and effectively this time. Follow it up with real border and immigration control, and you might find that the American people could be with you and that a new era could open for America. You can read Ms. Geyer's full article here. |
