Mr. President. let me very briefly respond to my friend from North Carolina saying we are in agreement that immigration policy ought to be based on what is best for America. That is given. That is fundamental. But the question is how do you best serve this country in immigration policy? We do not need sweeping changes in immigration policy because one person abuses it in New York. I do not know anything about the case that he cited but there are other ways of dealing with that. But if you take a look at who is winning national merit scholarships. who the young people are who are coming up at the very top of their class frequently these days. frequently it is Asian young people. people who were brought in under family preference. and people who would be excluded frequently if you had that English language preference.
