Theodore
Roosevelt's ideas on Immigrants and being an AMERICAN in 1907,
"In the first place, we should insist that if the immigrant who
comes here in good faith becomes an American and assimilates
himself to us, he shall be treated on an exact equality with
everyone else, for it is an outrage to discriminate against any
such man because of creed, or birthplace, or origin. But this is
predicated upon the person's becoming in every facet an
American, and nothing but an American...There can be no divided
allegiance here. Any man who says he is an American, but
something else also, isn't an American at all. We have room for
but one flag, the American flag... We have room for but one
language here, and that is the English language... and we have
room for but one sole loyalty and that is a loyalty to the
American people."
You see, it is not too much to expect
immigrants to learn our language, understand our culture, and
respect our laws and borders. At a minimum, Pres. Roosevelt
expected these things of the new immigrants during the mass
legal immigration through New York’s Ellis Island, one of the
greatest times in our country’s history. Through my leadership,
I will effect the complete removal of all illegal aliens from
our country. I will Enforce The Laws!
