I recently received two e-mailsone, a video from CNN's Lou Dobbs show, speaking about the Bill in congress addressing Illegal Aliens, and then a few minutes later, I received one with the words of Theodore Roosevelt from a speech he gave in 1907, and I found it interesting how Roosevelt's speech related so well to our country and the difficult decisions that need to be made at this time in our history.
The year is 1907
And the speaker knew what he was talking about.

Theodore Roosevelt's ideas on Immigrants and being an AMERICAN in 1907.
"In the first place, we should insist that if the immigrant who comes here in good faith becomes an American and assimilates himself to us, he shall be treated on an exact equality with everyone else, for it is an outrage to discriminate against any such man because of creed, or birthplace, or origin. But this is predicated upon the person's becoming in every facet an American, and nothing but an American
There can be no divided allegiance here. Any man who says he is an American, but something else also, isn't an American at all! We have room for but one flag, the American flag
We have room for but one language here, and that is the English language
and we have room for but one sole loyalty and that is a loyalty to the American people."
~Theodore Roosevelt 1907
Every American citizen needs to read this!
Please judge for yourself the merits of each, and I hope to hear from some of our readers with comments about these important issues.
