Thread: Immigration the Way it was in 1907

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."

Jump right on in with the rest of us (we don't bite, honest).

Those TR quotes are great - I love 'em!

Here are a couple more:

"When they call the roll in the Senate, the senators do not know whether to answer 'present' or 'guilty.'" ( )

"There is no place for the hyphen in our citizenship. We are a nation, not a hodge-podge of foreign nationalities. We are a people, and not a polyglot boarding house."

Thank you. Im tired of the Illegals in NC. Living for free off our tax money.

Theodore Roosevelt’s ideas worked very well , Old president Ike's deportation efforts worked even better.
