Open borders and amnesty – again: A solution to illegal immigration?<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cA Republic, if you can keep it\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

\u2014 Benjamin Franklin, in response to a question on what form of American government had been created by the Constitutional Convention of 1787. <\/p>\n

\u201cMy dream is that we will not have a border\u201d <\/em><\/p>\n

\u2014 former Mexican President Vicente Fox at Georgia\u2019s Kennesaw State University promoting the agenda of expanding NAFTA to include the free flow of people, May 12.<\/p>\n

Although it went unreported by The Associated Press<\/a>, along with Robert Pastor, author of a 2001 book entitled \u201cToward a North American Community,\u201d former Mexican President Vicente Fox unabashedly advanced his \u201cnew vision for North American Prosperity\u201d at a recent KSU event.<\/a>Readers who have not yet heard that they should adopt a \u201cNorth American identity\u201d may be quite surprised to learn of the former El Presidente\u2019s proposals that we officially eliminate American borders and wave the white flag of surrender over the nation we were entrusted to pass on.<\/p>\n

Oh, and the U.S. must repeat the 1986 legalization program for the millions of currently illegal aliens who didn\u2019t wait for the officially borderless continent, insists the man who was president as millions of his countrymen fled the corruption and grinding poverty of Mexico for \u201cEl Norte.\u201d<\/p>\n

More than 10 percent of Mexican- born people now live in the USA.<\/p>\n

A little background:<\/p>\n

As he has countless times, in a 2000 interview on ABC\u2019s \u201cThis Week,\u201d then Mexican President-elect Vicente Fox hopefully predicted that by 2010 people would move freely across the border between Mexico and the United States. <\/p>\n

El Presidente\u2019s cure for illegal immigration from Mexico? Eliminate our immigration laws.<\/p>\n

End that old-fashioned American sovereignty and eventually \u201cintegrate\u201d the nations of the Americas. Defined: Defended borders are selfish and Americans live far too well.<\/p>\n

\u201cIs the dream of prosperity just for Americans or can it be shared with the rest of us?\u201d Fox asks while he relentlessly pushes for the expansion of the 1994 NAFTA agreement to include people.<\/p>\n

At the sparsely attended KSU event this month, Fox promised, that without borders, \u201cthe dreams of our founding fathers will be fulfilled with freedom and better distribution of the wealth.\u201d <\/p>\n

This longtime American is not the first to note that Leon Trotsky and Karl Marx were not our founding fathers.<\/p>\n

In his autobiographical 2007 book: \u201cRevolution of Hope,\u201d Fox boasts that \u201cI proposed a NAFTA Plus plan to President Bush and Canada\u2019s Prime Minister Jean Chretien to move us toward a single continental economic union, modeled on the European example.\u201d<\/p>\n

For Americans who take Franklin\u2019s challenge to heart, it would be alarming enough if Fox were a singular voice in the privileged and oh-so enlightened \u201cPost American\u201d ruling class.<\/p>\n

He isn\u2019t.<\/p>\n

After Fox and George W. Bush were sworn in, the Atlanta Journal Constitution newspaper ran an editorial <\/a>accurately noting that \u201cthough neither Fox nor President Bush expects to dissolve the 2,000-mile border overnight, the Mexican leader clearly prefers sooner rather than later.\u201d<\/p>\n

Joining other American editorial pages \u2014 including the Wall Street Journal\u2019s \u2014 the AJC went on to accurately announce that \u201cMexican President Vicente Fox envisions a North American economic alliance that will make the border between the United States and Mexico as unrestricted as the one between Tennessee and Georgia.\u201d And then endorsed the concept by recommending that \u201cthe ultimate goal of any White House policy ought to be a North American economic and political alliance similar in scope and ambition to the European Union.\u201d<\/p>\n

Fox is \u201cEl Presidente\u201d no more and George W. Bush failed in his repeated attempts to legalize the illegal aliens who escaped American Border Patrol Agents.<\/p>\n

The open borders amnesty agenda however, lives on. Under enormous pressure from Mexico and a coalition of big business and the radical ethnic lobby \u2014 and against huge resistance from the American people \u2014 President Obama is reportedly ready to push his own legalization legislation soon.<\/p>\n

Not to mention discarding the rule of law on open borders and legalization, we should all be asking how large a population we want in what is now the United States, and remember that under the current interpretation of our Constitution, most people born on our soil are awarded the title, rights and benefits of an \u201cAmerican citizen.\u201d<\/p>\n

Open borders and amnesty threaten to make the term \u2014 American \u2014 and the founder\u2019s struggle \u2014 meaningless.<\/p>\n
