But there is a tremendous propaganda machine that goes on all the time. There is an ideological war. a brainwashing. if you will. of antiAmerican propaganda constantly. Before the Senator came to the floor. we were talking about the immigration problem in this country and the necessity for us to stand firm so that we will not have everyone in Latin America come into the United States. I have made the comment many times though that when the 100.000 Cubans came last year to seek freedom and asylum in the United States the only reason we do not have several millions of that 10 million population is because most of them cannot swim 90 miles. because life is tough in Cuba. There are no consumer goods. there is no productivity. the country did at one time have a much happier population.

Implies that everyone in Latin America wants to come to the US.
