Mr. President. I understand on each occasion when we deal with immigration and refugee issues. and my friend from Minnesota. known affectionately of old No. 43. because I am No. 44. and he has never let me forget that. in our seniority ratings that is. of course. I did not know he paid that close attention. but he continues to bring it up. puts it on papers. slips it under the door. He does have me by 1 day seniority. He is one of my loveliest friends in this place. His intent and his intentions are so authentic because he fled Nazi Germany and at the age of 5 was a refugee. a true refugee. Had he stayed or his parents. they would have been killed. They could not get visas here and they could not get visas there and they went to Poland and went to England and went to other countries and finally got here. He was 5 years old at that time. He Is the only man in the body who cannot be President of the United States because he was born in Germany.
