An Old Scam Casts Doubt on the Citizenship

People in Texas who were delivered by a midwife at private homes are having their citizenship questioned. In the early 1990s, dozens of midwives were convicted of forging U.S. birth certificates for about 15,000 children born in Mexico as far back as the 1960s.

I for one am glad some of these citizenship issues are being looked into. There is no counting the number of people who claim they were born here and in reality, had forged credentials.

Some will say this issue targets Hispanics (Mexicans). I say so what. I look around my area of Texas and I see so many Mexicans who steal our public services, demand the fruits of our country, yet have no right to them.

I top it off, they refuse to assimilate into our culture; holding on to the culture of their true country.

I could not care less if these people are having their citizenship questioned. I am willing to bet that the majority do have forged credentials.

"The men who do not become Americans and nothing else are hyphenated Americans; and there ought to be no room for them in this country. The man who calls himself an American citizen and who yet shows by his actions that he is primarily the citizen of a foreign land, plays a thoroughly mischievous part in the life of our body politic. He has no place here; and the sooner he returns to the land to which he feels his real heart-allegiance, the better it will be for every good American. There is no such thing as a hyphenated American who is a good American. The only man who is a good American is the man who is an American and nothing else...." - Teddy Roosevelt

Ah, The wisdom of TR. Where are leaders like him now? They apparently have been lost to political correctness and lack of political courage. What a shame.
