My ballot in Maryland was in both English and
Spanish. Maybe it’s been that way for years, I honestly don’t remember. On the
way out the door, as always happens, someone tried to give me and my older
daughter, a whole 17 months, an “I voted” sticker. I passed because I think
they’re stupid and obnoxious – you shouldn’t celebrate doing what you’re
supposed to do – but my wife, who took longer to vote because she skipped every
race where there was only one person on the ballot, took one. It read, “I
voted, yo vote.” It was then it occurred to me that the benefits of citizenship
are either going away or pretty much gone.
Don’t get me wrong, I still have pride in the
country, but the country is changing significantly, or more correctly it’s
being changed, in a dramatic way I’m not sure people are aware of.
Why would a ballot need to be written in English
and Spanish when, by law, you’re expected to be proficient in English in order
to become a citizen and, therefore, be eligible to vote?
That makes people “Americans” is being diluted and destroyed by Democrats
willing to do anything to obtain power, except listen to the people they seek
to represent.
There was a time, believe it or not, when
immigrants came to this country with the desire to become an American, not a
hyphenated American. There were always ethnic enclaves in major cities – a
Little Italy, a Chinatown etc. – and immigrants moved there upon their
arrivals. It made sense, they had limited to no English skills, so being able to
communicate in their native tongue was understandable. But these enclaves were
not their landing strips, it was their launching pads.
Immigrants stayed in those enclaves only as long as
they had to in order to learn the language, learn what it took to assimilate.
Then they moved on.
Now the opposite happens – immigrants are
encouraged by Democrats to maintain their allegiance to their native land, to
reject assimilation and maintain the cultures they, in many cases, fled. That
leads to a nation of people with nothing in common and limited ability to
communicate with each other. We never looked alike, but we could talk. It’s
getting so we can’t anymore, and liberals love that.
If you never speak to anyone different from you, you get a perverted impression
of the world. Just look at CNN and MSNBC. There is no debate there, only slight
disagreements. They truly believe Donald Trump is lowering the discourse in
this country and spreading hate while calling him Hitler, his supporters Nazis,
and fantasizing about horrible things happening to the president,
up to and including
his assassination .
These same people insist encouraging assimilation
into America by people seeking to become Americans is racist. “Celebrate
diversity,” they scream, leaving off the implied “or else.”
Diversity based on pigment is the least relevant
and interesting thing human beings can be, let alone “celebrate.” Skin color
has always been an obsession of racists, and it still is. It’s what we have in
common that makes us a nation. But having things in common leads to getting
along, and getting along isn’t in the Democrats’ playbook. So they seek to
divide so they can manipulate.
As I explain in my
book , if you can convince people “the system is rigged against
them,” and they suffer the setbacks, disappointments, and jerks everyone
encounters in life, those setbacks become discouragements from trying in the
future. Why try when you believe you literally can’t win?
This creates a mass of people convinced a political
party acting on their behalf is the only way to get ahead, to make life “fair.”
But life isn’t fair, life is what you make of it. And you don’t make anything
of your life waiting for someone else, some political party, to run blocker for
you or do your heavy lifting.
Democrats are removing what it means to be an
American from actually being an American for their own political gain.
Now the left is actively favoring illegal aliens
over Americans and legal immigrants. Liberal jurisdictions across the country
are spending untold millions of our tax dollars to defend people here
illegally, granting in-state tuition, various forms of welfare benefits (free
meals as schools, picking up the tab for their health care, etc.), and voting
rights in some areas for local elections (for now).
They tell us illegal aliens are a boon to the
economy, which is laughable. Some areas have gone so far as to plea down crimes
by illegal aliens to avoid them getting on the radar of Immigration and Customs
Enforcement. Would an American get that deal? Of course not.
For an illegal alien to work in this country and “pay taxes,” as we’re
told they do, they’d have to steal someone’s identity, someone’s Social
Security number. That’s a serious crime with real victims, American victims of
all backgrounds, and something for which American citizens would do real time
for committing, but illegal aliens committing it is ignored.
So what’s the point of citizenship? We aren’t
granted special protections by government officials, we’re subject to our laws.
People who break our laws to come here have a political party willing to bend
over backwards to make sure they aren’t. Immigrants who come here legally
aren’t encouraged to assimilate, they get ballots in their native tongue. How
can you fully invest in a country if you can’t communicate in the common
language?
You can’t.
I want everyone with something to offer to come
here, legally, and become an American. Democrats want anyone to come here, as
long as they’re likely to vote for Democrats.
If Democrats regain power next week, what it means
to be an American will be diluted even further. We just have to decide if we
want to be a nation where it's more advantageous to be here illegally than to
be a citizen. Because that’s what’s really on the ballot Tuesday.
AMERICA, THE ANCHOR BABIES FOR WELFARE STATE

“The children of illegal aliens are commonly
known as “anchor babies,” as they anchor their illegal alien and noncitizen
parents in the U.S. There are at least 4.5 million anchor babies in the country, a population that exceeds the total number of annual American
births.” JOHN BINDER
“As Breitbart News recently reported, there are more anchor
baby births in the Los Angeles, California metro area than the total U.S.
births in 14 states and the District of Colombia. Every year, American
taxpayers are billed about $2.4 billion to pay for the births of illegal aliens.”

This annual income for an impoverished American family
is $10,000 less than the more than $34,500 in federal funds which are spent on
each unaccompanied minor border crosser.
A study by Tom Wong of the
University of California at San Diego discovered that more than 25 percent of
DACA-enrolled illegal aliens in the program have anchor babies. That totals
about 200,000 anchor babies who are the children of DACA-enrolled illegal
aliens. This does not include the anchor babies of DACA-qualified illegal
aliens. JOHN BINDER

Only in America could critics of a group called
"The Race" be labeled racists. Such is the triumph of left-wing
identity chauvinists, whose aggressive activists and supine abettors have
succeeded in redefining all opposition as "hate."
Previous
generations of immigrants did not believe they were racially superior to
Americans. That is the view of La Raza Cosmica , by Jose Vasconcelos,
Mexico’s former education minister and a presidential candidate. According to
this book, republished in 1979 by the Department of Chicano Studies at Cal
State LA, students of Scandinavian, Dutch and English background are dullards,
blacks are ugly and inferior, and those “Mongols” with the slanted eyes lack
enterprise. The superior new “cosmic” race of Spaniards and Indians is
replacing them, and all Yankee “Anglos.” LLOYD
