Australia. Switzerland. and the Netherlands? These countries have reevaluated their immigration policy. They are focusing on bringing in people who benefit the country. We cannot accept everybody. Isnt it a simple principle? There is no way this country can accept everybody who would like to come. The leading expert on immigrationI think universally agreed on immigrationsuch as Professor Voorhas from the Kennedy School at Harvard. he himself is an immigrant. He immigrated here from Cuba. The name of his book. probably the most authoritative book on the entire subject. is entitled "Heavens Door." What is that? "Heavens Door" is entry into the United States. For a poor person in the Third World who has been abused by a legal system that does not work. who does not have clean water. who does not have a legitimate job. who does not have electricity. getting to the United States. the title of his book. is like going through Heavens door.
