I'm far more concerned about the 135 million people in this country who believe as Pat Buchanan does, presuming that the only way our nation "survives" is if it remains, or reverts to, a nation full of European-immigrant descendants. My 11 years of ministering to largely undocumented Mexican immigrants has convinced me that we have nothing to fear, and much to gain, from Hispanic immigration. Recognizing that we have millions of hard-working, loyal, decent immigrants who desperately love the United States of America would best be demonstrated by a broad and generous amnesty, one that enfranchises people and, not insignificantly, allows the country to collect taxes and regulate employer abuse they often suffer. <br><br>Why Pat Buchanan is so frightened would be a mystery to me, if I didn't read his stuff and have it confirmed that the "browning" of America, and the "accented" English he hears, threaten his position as a privileged white male and his dream of a country led and populated by people just like him. Believe me, he makes it perfectly clear . . . <br><br>Keely<br><a href="http://keely-prevailingwinds.blogspot.com/">http://keely-prevailingwinds.blogspot.com/</a><br><br><br><br><br>> To: vision2020@moscow.com<br>> From: thansen@moscow.com<br>> Date: Thu, 26 Mar 2009 13:22:35 +0000<br>> Subject: [Vision2020] Say What?<br>> <br>> "Who is going to care 30 years from now whether a Sunni or a Shia is in <br>> Baghdad or who's ruling in Kabul?
