The Liberal Newcomers
http://www.nationalreview.com/article/370166/liberal-newcomers-phyllis-schlaflyPeople come to America because it is a remarkable oasis of freedom, prosperity, and opportunity. Conservatives recognize that the principal reason for our unique abundance is our constitutional restraint on the power of government. As Thomas Jefferson said, “In questions of power, let no more be heard of confidence in man, but bind him down from mischief by the chains of the Constitution.â€
Maintaining this system requires the public to support limited government. In a new report, Eagle Forum details how immigration is fundamentally changing the electorate to one that is much more supportive of big government.
It is no surprise the left want Amnesty. Many of these immigrants are from countries with big, bloated, and corrupt governments. Of course you have immigrants who are not leftists.
Proof immigrations is not about race at all.
Immigration in general — not race — is the issue. The limited data for other immigrants — including Europeans and Muslims — indicate that they, too, generally hold views well to the left of the average American voter. In fact, as discussed in our new report, for reasons largely outside the control of conservatives, immigrants and their children gravitate to left-wing parties in almost all Western countries. The problem for conservatives is not race or ethnicity but immigration as such.
Europe and many Muslim nations have big governments.
