It is a violation of the criminal laws of this country for a foreigner to come here. bootlegged in without authority. and he violates the law when he comes here. Would you count him? Do you think that by the wildest stretch of the imagination any member of the Constitutional Convention could ever have had the idea that we would be compelled. under the Constitution. to count people who are here unlawfully. and give them representation in Congress when they had to dodge the legal authorities to keep from being put in jail or from being deported at any time?
