I find it baffling that in this area we are not only failing to provide leadership to the States. but we are actually being left behind as they have given up on the Federal Government and adopted progressive approaches of their own. such as the McAlister project. The Twentieth Century Fund Task Force has stated an obvious goal. We are the only Nation in the world that is made up almost exclusively of immigrants or their descendants. The socalled melting pot. which has incorporated the best elements of all other cultures. is the very foundation for our social and economic success. But. in order to achieve this synthesis. we must be united on certain things. with a common language at the core.
