I think the current controversy over immigration reform points to a larger issue in America today, which is that Americans are essentially split on the very idea of what America is and should be.

It used to be that Americans mostly agreed that in order to attain citizenship, immigrants had to not only come to this country legally but also demonstrate, after training and study in the American system, that they believed in the unique United States Constitution and embraced what it means to be an American.

Though that still occurs in the naturalization process, we seem to have abandoned it altogether in connection with the immigration debate.

Frosty Wooldridge — The 100 million immigrant amnesty equation

April 17, 2013 3 comments

NewsWithViews.com

 

Our U.S. Congress leads this nation over a demographic cliff, an environmental inferno, into standard of living cave and a quality of life purgatory. The approaching amnesty for 20 million illegal alien migrants working and residing in our country in violation of our laws—ultimately ends up becoming 100 million more immigrants added to America.

Astoundingly, no one in Congress sees the final folly, the eventual outcome, the end result and the catastrophic final curtain. Why don’t they see what I see? Why don’t the American people understand it like I recognize it? How can so many Americans be so completely out of touch with the final result of an amnesty?

This “immigration bill” (why not call it what it is a so-called attempt to deal with ILLEGAL immigration) not just an immigration plan – why do they leave the WORD illegal out – supposedly has some key components:

 

 

 

1.) Penalties. 2.) Back to the end of the line. 3.) Illegals cannot get gov’t handouts (food stamps, etc). I thought that for all these years they weren’t eligible, weren’t receiving them an/or they never did in the first place… 4.) An E-Verify system.

On his radio show last week, Geraldo Rivera applauded the Associated Press’ decision to drop the term “illegal immigrant” from its official style guidelines and then decreed that no one should use the phrase any longer, seeing as how he believes it is akin to saying “negro” to describe a black person.

“You can never use the expression ‘illegal alien’ again,” the radio host said to his colleague Bill O’Reilly. “It is a pejorative. It’s like saying ‘negro’ or ‘homosexual.’ It is a loaded term that doesn’t accurately describe.”

 

 

“Why don’t you just give me a list of things I can say?” O’Reilly pushed back.

 

 

“Illegal aliens” and “Bible thumping” are two things you cannot say, Rivera quipped in reference to his Fox’s colleague’s controversial remarks about the religious opponents of gay marriage.

In another break from Republican Party orthodoxy, Kentucky Senator Rand Paul has said that America’s illegal immigrants should be integrated into the tax system in a program that would eventually lead to the possibility of citizenship.

 

Speaking about immigration issues at the US Hispanic Chamber of Commerce, Paul said “Let’s start that conversation by acknowledging we aren’t going to deport” the millions of illegal immigrants living in the United States en masse.

 

Prudence, compassion and thrift all point us toward the same goal: bringing these workers out of the shadows and into becoming and being taxpaying members of society,” the Tea Party leader and suspected 2016 presidential candidate added.

TUCSON — The release of more than 300 people from immigration detention centers in Arizona — part of a mass release across the nation in anticipation of looming federal budget cuts — sparked outrage among activists on both sides of the political aisle.

 

 

Anti-illegal immigration groups and others accused the Obama administration of playing politics, while an immigrant rights group said the incident showed the administration had detained people they shouldn’t have in the first place.

Obama Pushes Illegals Ahead of Legal Immigrants

Less than a week after the publication of my latest book, Crime & Incompetence: Guide to America’s Immigration Crisis, a predication was proven correct: President Obama was lying to the American people when he claimed illegal immigrants would go to the back of the line after legal immigrants as part of his comprehensive immigration reform.

During President Obama’s celebrated immigration reform speech in Las Vegas, on January 29, he claimed, “We’ve got to lay out a path—a process that includes passing a background check, paying taxes, paying a penalty, learning English, and then going to the back of the line, behind all the folks who are trying to come here legally. That’s only fair, right?”

Whenever the federal government decides to reform something we can be fairly sure that the problem is about to get worse, especially if they call the plan bi-partisan. The bi-partisan immigration reform proposal launched last week in the US Senate will be no different.

 

The new plan, introduced by Sens. McCain and Schumer, would provide a path to citizenship for many of those in the United States illegally. This would only begin after the borders are deemed secure and applicants have paid fees for their illegal entry. They must also pay back taxes on their earnings while working here without government permission. Those on a path to citizenship would be subject to background checks and would be monitored while in the US.

Frosty Wooldridge — Mass immigration destabilizing America’s Political System

December 12, 2012 28 comments

…..Since 1965, our U.S. Government, led by forever Senator Teddy Kennedy, passed the Immigration Reform Act, which bumped annual immigration from 100,000 to 1.2 to 1.5 million annually from third world countries. As the U.S. filled up with poverty-prone citizens, President Lyndon Baines Johnson passed the Great Society Act that handed out welfare checks, housing, free lunches and food stamps like candy on Halloween to millions of new-comers. Our national debt exceeded $1.1 trillion by the end of his term.

Those Great Society welfare queens churned out babies faster than a Ford assembly line. Each new baby gave the ‘poor’ mother a car payment, new TV, fashionable clothing, dish washer and unlimited credit. One minority woman in Detroit, Michigan, where I worked in the 70s, 80s and 90s, pumped out 24 children with more than a dozen fathers. Her first three girls birthed their own babies by age 15. The woman and her children became the first wave of ‘cyclical welfare’ poverty in America. Score one for the idealistic zeal of democrats!

As you can imagine, thousands of readers respond to my commentaries because they can see this immigration onslaught affecting their own communities. They see its effects in their stores with shop lifting and homes with burglaries, their schools with dramatic flunk out rates and violence, hospitals with anchor babies by the tens of thousands. They see churches turning from English to Spanish language along with radio stations and television stations serving millions of Spanish speakers. We now have Arabic language TV stationsin Islamic strongholds like Detroit.

Samuel Huntington, in The Clash of Civilizations, said, “It is my hypothesis that the fundamental source of conflict in this new world will not be primarily ideological or primarily economic. The great divisions among humankind and the dominating source of conflict will be cultural. Nation states will remain the most powerful actors in world affairs, but the principle conflicts of global politics will occur between nations and groups of different civilizations. The clash of civilizations will dominate global politics. The fault lines between civilizations will be the battle lines of the future.”

Richard Lamm, former governor of Colorado

**********

…“Having made America a bilingual–bicultural country, having established multiculturalism, having the large foundations fund the doctrine of ‘Victimology’,” Lamm said. “I would next make it impossible to enforce our immigration laws. I would develop a mantra:

“That because immigration has been good for America, it must ALWAYS be good. I would make every individual immigrant sympatric and ignore the cumulative impact of millions of them.”In the last minute of his speech, Governor Lamm wiped his brow. A profound silence swept over the room.

Finally, he said, “Lastly, I would censor Victor Davis Hansen’s book “MEXIFORNIA.” His book is dangerous. It exposes the plan to destroy America. If you feel America deserves to be destroyed, don’t read that book.”There was no applause. A chilling apprehension rose like an ominous cloud above every attendee at the conference.

Every American in that room knew that everything Lamm enumerated was proceeding methodically, quietly, darkly, yet pervasively across the United States today. Every discussion is being suppressed. Over 100 languages rip the foundation of our educational system and national cohesiveness.

JB Williams — Hating Crime is NOT a Hate Crime

July 11, 2012 Leave a comment

The United States of America is a nation of self-governed people who believe in the Rule of Law and the U.S. Constitution as the Supreme Law of our Land. Hating crime is not a “hate crime” and neither is dealing directly with those who commit crimes against our nation, our sovereignty and our security.

Yet the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) is waging all-out war on American citizens who are fed up with watching their government operate in a lawless fashion, refusing to enforce our laws upon illegal invaders while overreaching in their enforcement attempts against American taxpayers. Watch this SPLC video for Law Enforcement, labeling patriotic American taxpayer backwoods militia crackpot, asserting that people who oppose “unconstitutional laws” are dangerous anarchists.

JB Williams — Reform – Making Illegal Immigration Legal

May 25, 2012 5 comments

Governments have never been known to reform themselves and the current debate over immigration reform is no different than the notion that government will cut spending and clip its own wings. By reform, D.C. politicians mean, to make that which is currently illegal, legal.

Lawmakers have been stopped from passing amnesty for millions of illegal aliens living in America. But they have not been forced to enforce our immigration and naturalization laws and even when Border States attempt to enforce those laws, the federal government sues the state on behalf of illegal immigrants.

In a current piece issued by the Census Bureau, titled Minorities now surpass whites in US births, Bureau racial statistics chief Roderick Harrison states – “This is an important landmark.” – “This generation is growing up much more accustomed to diversity than its elders.”

Of course, most of those “minorities” are in the United States illegally. This is of no great concern to Harrison. But what does concern Harrison is this – “We remain in a dangerous period where those appealing to anti-immigration elements are fueling a divisiveness and hostility that might take decades to overcome,” Harrison said.

For several years now, Americans have been wrongly accused of being “anti-immigration” just because they want their immigration and naturalization laws to be enforced. But calling someone anti-immigration because they oppose illegal immigration is akin to calling them anti-banking because they oppose bank robbery.

Like many sniveling liberals today, Harrison completely ignores the fact that we are talking about criminals here, people who have broken into our country illegally and make a career out of flouting our laws and undermining American sovereignty and security. Harrison is not at all concerned with these facts, he is instead worried about Americans “hostility” towards illegal invaders, as if Americans oppose immigration altogether.

Frosty Wooldridge — A letter to my preacher

March 22, 2012 Leave a comment

My work on the population/immigration front continues in almost mind-numbing frustration. Any time I bring up reducing mass immigration—the other folks out there start hurling names. Hurtful names such as racist, xenophobe and nativist. Chicken Little is a big one. It’s most disconcerting in that I have been integrated as a military brat since I was born. I taught in the inner city with 95 percent minorities. I still teach every race, creed and color with my volunteer ski instruction at Winter Park. I have always mixed well with any races. After traveling all over the world on my bicycle, I have deep and abiding respect for all races, creeds and colors as I know they (we) are all doing the best we can in life.

I am hoping to carve a wooden bowl for America in order to help all Americans face their own fate on multiple levels. It’s incredibly frustrating.

Nonetheless, I have pushed forward and, yet, I have made zero impact. My prayers have failed to get me on national media of any kind. I haven’t gotten on “60 Minutes,” Charlie Rose, Today Show, Meet the Press, Face the Nation and a dozen other shows even with continued requests.

The fact remains that Americans will add another 100 million immigrants to this country by 2050 and the planet will see another three billion people added within 38 years. It’s nuts and the human race faces daunting challenges as to food, water, energy and resources oil declines. I think our environment may crash even sooner as we destabilize the planet’s balancing systems. We will certainly run out of water, arable land, energy and finally, food.

With that knowledge, I ponder whether it is worth racking my mind and heart and taking enormous time to write and speak about it. Quite frankly, very, very few care. And if they do, they are afraid to speak up—especially because they don’t want to be called names. It’s an interesting predicament.

WASHINGTON (AP) — The Justice Department on Thursday urged the Supreme Court to stay out of a lawsuit involving Arizona’s immigration law, saying lower courts properly blocked tough provisions targeting illegal immigrants.

The state law is a challenge to federal policy and is designed to establish Arizona’s own immigration policy, the department’s solicitor general said in a filing with the justices. Arizona says the law is an effort to cooperate with the federal government.

Frosty Wooldridge — Illegal immigration: the cost of amnesty = $999 billion

Summary: This option is the bill H.R. 4437 sponsored by Rep. Jim Sensenbrenner that passed the House of Representatives in 2005. This bill would have been so effective in combating illegal immigration that some 1 million illegal aliens marched in cities around the United States on May 1, 2006 to protest it.

The Congressional Budget Office estimated the bill would cost $1.9 billion over the 5 years 2006-2010, which we extrapolate out to the year 2056 using a linear model to account for cost increases.

Michele Bachmann is coming under the microscope after insisting she would not help the children of illegal immigrants living in the United States.

The Republican presidential hopeful made the eyebrow-raising remarks at a campaign stop in Oskaloosa, Iowa on Saturday after a Latino college student asked what Bachmann would do to the children of undocumented immigrants.

She said she would “not do anything,” for the children, adding”Their parents are the ones who brought them here,” Bachmann said, as first reported by MSNBC. “They did not have the legal right to come to the United States. We do not owe people who broke our laws to come into the country. We don’t owe them anything.”

CASA de Maryland: The Illegals’ ACORN

September 20, 2011 Leave a comment

The illegal immigration debate has become an urgent focal point of American politics. Liberal politicians from the White House on down have vigorously advocated for illegal immigrant amnesty and lax border enforcement in a naked attempt to bolster prospective voter rolls.[1]

This controversy has been brewing for some time in Maryland, whose Hispanic population more than doubled between 2000 and 2010.[2] Under Governor Martin O’Malley’s sanctuary policies the state has become an illegal alien magnet.[3] The current cost of illegals in Maryland is estimated to be $1.7 billion per year, more than three-quarters of the state’s $2 billion structural deficit.[4]

Taxpayer ire overflowed this March with the passage of Maryland’s Development, Relief, and Education for Alien Minors (DREAM) Act, granting in-state college tuition rates to illegals. A nonpartisan coalition of concerned Marylanders launched a petition drive to delay the measure and place it on the 2012 ballot as a referendum. They needed 55,736 signatures. They received twice that amount………….

September 9, 2011 Leave a comment

The chairman of the House Judiciary Committee said Friday that President Obama’s half-uncle, an illegal immigrant who was picked up but has reportedly been released from jail, appears to have benefited from the new “backdoor amnesty” the administration announced last month.

“It appears there is a double standard — one for President Obama’s family and one for everyone else,” Rep. Lamar Smith, Texas Republican, said. “Last year, President Obama’s illegal immigrant aunt was granted asylum and now his illegal immigrant uncle has been released from [the Immigrations and Customs Enforcement agency] custody, even though he was arrested by authorities for drunk driving.”

Mr. Smith said the case will be the first “test case” for a new Homeland Security policy announced last month that gives immigration authorities more discretion to let illegal immigrants go, rather than pursue efforts to deport them.

The Boston Globereported Friday that Onyango Obama, the half-brother of the president’s father, was released from jail Thursday after being held for more than two weeks on an immigration detainer after he was arrested on a drunk-driving charge.

Asked about the case last week, Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano told reporters she couldn’t comment on a specific matter and didn’t know enough about the incident.

A White House spokesman said last week that he did not expect the man to receive special treatment……………

JW Uncovers Obama Plan to Impose DREAM Act by Suspending Illegal Alien Deportations

September 2, 2011 2 comments

Judicial Watch, the public interest group that investigates and prosecutes government corruption, announced today that it has obtained documents from the Obama Department of Homeland Security (DHS) detailing behind-the-scenes efforts by the Obama administration to bypass Congress and grant amnesty at least one million illegal aliens by suspending immigration deportation proceedings against “DREAM (Development, Relief, and Education for Alien Minors) Act kids” and other illegal aliens…

The records include emails from press outlets investigating the Obama administration’s efforts to suspend the deportations of students who would be covered under The DREAM Act, which was under consideration by Congress. The DREAM Act would have permitted certain immigrant students who have grown up in the U.S. to apply for temporary legal status, eventually obtain permanent legal status, and become eligible for U.S. citizenship if they go to college or serve in the U.S. military. The DREAM Act has failed repeatedly to pass Congress. The DREAM Act initially could provide amnesty for over one million illegal immigrants and would have cost over $6 billion a year….

“These documents show the Obama administration is lying about its stealth amnesty activities and its alarming contempt for Congress and the rule of law. Frankly, these documents show that Obama immigration officials don’t even know what the law is! The Obama administration cannot simply pick and choose which federal immigration laws it will enforce. In its zeal to curry favor with the illegal alien lobby and secure Hispanic votes for a second term, the Obama administration is exercising raw executive power to change the law by granting illegal aliens amnesty in a way that strikes at the heart of our constitutional system and the rule of law. This is a festering constitutional crisis,” stated Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton

Multi-Culturalism American Style, or Second Amendment Success! « Coach is Right

September 1, 2011 Leave a comment

As recently stated by German Chancellor Merkle, French President Sarkozy and British Prime Minister Cameron, “multiculturalism,” is an abject failure.

Unless a country is allowed to maintain its own identity, history and culture while allowing people to integrate, it leads to ethnic strife and death. Insisting that those joining their community share the same language and accept the culture of their new homes, does not mean the emigrants may not maintain their own culture in their personal dealings. It does not, in any way, denigrate the emigrants culture.

It does, however,mean the blatantly obvious:

”You have left your home country, and you are free and welcome in ours. As long as you learn our language and respect our laws, and the rights of our citizens to continue to run our government and our lives as though you never arrived on our shores, you are welcome. If you feel you cannot join and live within the parameters of the free culture you have arrived in, you have the same freedom to leave our shores as you had to come here. You do not have the right to try to change this country into anything.”

No country can survive the Balkanization created when weak-kneed politicians allow emigrants to set up their own cultural enclaves, complete with foreign justice systems and “No-go zones”for the host countries law enforcement………………

Word Illegal Near Extinction in Obama Administration

August 23, 2011 Leave a comment

This morning, I double-checked to be sure the word “illegal” was still a word in the dictionary. As of this morning, it still means “criminal, felonious, illegitimate, illicit, lawless, unlawful, and wrongful.” However, it is quite obvious, that the longer Progressive Democrats have carte’ blanche to do what they want, the closer the word “illegal” gets to becoming extinct.

It is difficult to determine who it is this administration is particularly interested in protecting. Law-abiding, hardworking folks who mind their business and turn their attention to providing for their families, seem to fall by the wayside, while the administration focuses on fulfilling President Obama’s commitment to “fundamentally transform” America……………..

Alabama Leaders Slam Justice Department for Suing Over Immigration Law

August 10, 2011 Leave a comment

Alabama GOP leaders slammed Eric Holder and the Department of Justice for suing the state over H.B. 56, saying the Federal failure to secure the border and enforce immigration laws has compelled the states to act. And they showed strong defiance that they would prevail against Holder and his ACLU legal team.

Mike Hubbard, the Alabama House Speaker said:

“Make no mistake, this lawsuit will not undo Alabama’s immigration law. If the court finds problems with parts of the law, tweaks can be made,” Mr. Hubbard said. “But Alabama is not going to be a sanctuary state for illegal immigrants. Alabama will have a strict immigration law and we will enforce it.”

Holder’s DOJ filed suit against Alabama’s outstanding immigration law on August 1st, despite such laws having strong support from the American People. A July 15 Rasmussen Poll showed that a whopping 67% of Americans (with just 22% opposed) support states like Alabama and Arizona passing state laws to enforce immigration law when the Federal government fails to act. And this issue promises to be a big battleground in next year’s elections.

But all Alabama is trying to do is to rein in the massive costs of illegal aliens to state taxpayers, and curtail employment of illegals which has so devastated Alabama’s economy and unemployment. Illegal aliens cost Alabama $298 million annually, and Federal malfeasance has permitted Alabama’s illegal immigrant population to increase by nearly 400 percent over the past decade.

As Alabama’s Senate President Pro Tem Del Marsh said:

“With almost one out of every 10 Alabamians looking for a job, we need to make sure that legal Alabama residents are not being passed over for employment in lieu of those who are here illegally.”

In other words, while Eric Holder is focused on politics and pandering to groups such as the National Council of La Raza (“The Race”), Alabama’s GOP leaders are concerned with JOBS, and the destructive impact illegal aliens have against Alabama workers.

Jim Kouri — Is Obama aiding illegal aliens for votes?

July 14, 2011 Leave a comment

It’s apparent that President Obama considers Americans, who want to enforce illegal immigration laws in America, to be the enemy. Even more revealing is the fact that with so much riding on the 2012 elections, Obama decided to take the time to speak to people who shouldn’t be voting — legal and illlegal immigrants.

But the dirty little secret is there exists an enormous amount of proof that non-citizens are being registered to vote and they’re being registered as Democrats. And our political leaders know it.

In the midst of a heated congressional race in California in 2006, the Democrat Party candidate was heard advising a crowd she knew were illegal aliens to vote and work for her campaign. Democrat Francine Busby supported the bipartisan immigration reform plan that Sen. John McCain (R-AZ) helped create with the late Sen. Edward Kennedy (D-MA). Busby believes that the amnesty serves as the heart of the legislation approved by the Senate last week.

“The U.S. Census Bureau reports that 28.2 percent of Hispanic voters in the 2008 election were immigrants,” according to Steven Camarota of Center for Immigration Studies

Whistleblower J. Christian Adams, who testified before a Commission of Civil Rights committee regarding voter intimidation by the New Black Panthers, dropped a bomb on his former employers at the Department of Justice.

According to Adams, a Deputy Attorney General refused to investigate allegations of illegal voting during the last presidential election.

Blue State liberals are not like us; they just aren’t «Coach is Right

June 28, 2011 Leave a comment

The Left is painting itself into a corner that is accelerating the destruction of its fortresses across the country. The red ink soaked Democrats who control Illinois New York California and Massachusetts are seemingly doing everything they can to drive their states into bankruptcy.

While Red States such as Alabama Georgia and Arizona have busied themselves passing firm anti-illegal alien laws, America’s Bluest States are busy committing social and financial suicide and taking their dwindling number of American patriots with them.

To make it harder for the police to protect their citizens from criminal illegal aliens all four of these Blue states have withdrawn from participation in the federal “Secure Communities” program which helps local law enforcers identify and deport illegal alien felons in their custody.

As if to underscore how counterproductive pulling out of this program is, at about the same time the Democrats in these states were sabotaging efforts to protect their citizens from foreign criminals, U.S. Immigration and Customs officials were announcing the arrest of some 2400 criminal who are illegally in our country.

On Thursday, Ron Paul announced he would form an exploratory committee for a run at the 2012 Republican presidential nomination. This is about as unexpected as spring snow melt.

I served with Ron Paul in Congress for 10 years. He was a member of my Immigration Reform Caucus, and I consider him a friend. We didn’t see eye to eye on every issue, but he was generally an ally in the fight against illegal immigration. Unfortunately, it appears that Paul’s views on immigration have now shifted into the pro-amnesty camp.

Barack Obama has declared that “immigration reform is an economic imperative”, and is promising to do his best to get an immigration bill pushed through Congress this year. But will “legalizing” all of the illegal immigration that has taken place over the last several decades improve the struggling U.S. economy or will it actually make our economic problems worse?

President Barack Obama is ramping up his push to overhaul the country’s immigration system, launching a sustained personal campaign to pressure Congress into taking up the controversial issue that will rely in part on recruiting outside help.

“He is committed and will be leaning into this issue in a very serious and very vigorous way,” Melody Barnes, director of the Domestic Policy Council, said Tuesday at a briefing for a small group of reporters. “We are upping the intensity on this issue.”

Barnes and Cecilia Munoz, the White House director of intergovernmental affairs, detailed a strategy of pressuring Congress from the outside by deploying Cabinet members, senior staff and business, labor and groups to make the case.

The administration took a similar approach ahead of a surprisingly close Senate vote late last year on the Dream Act, which would have provided a path to citizenship for young illegal immigrants who were brought to the country as children.

“It could be argued that (this system) may well allow some immigrants who come here illegally a beneficial status without automatic citizenship or tax-supported benefits — a much better option than deportation,” Rep. Paul writes on page 156.

In a word, no.

No nation can be successful if it allows unbridled immigration.

Here’s the basic fact folks: The land upon which this nation rests belongs to you and I as citizens. That is, the “United States“, as a collective, belongs to the citizens of the country.

Each and every person who we allow to come into this nation adds to the “divisor” of people that have an indivisible claim on the resources of this nation.

Elder Obama denied Harvard PhD

The Boston Globe ^ | April 29, 2011 | Sally Jacobs, Globe Staff

Posted on Friday, April 29, 2011 11:14:48 AM by Gondring

Throughout a tumultuous career as an economist in Nairobi in the 1960s, Barack Hussein Obama, President Obama’s father, claimed to have earned a PhD from Harvard University. But according to federal immigration records, Obama was forced to leave the school by administrators alarmed at his freewheeling personal life and financial difficulties.

In a May 1964 memo contained in the elder Obama’s Immigration and Naturalization Service file, an immigration inspector noted that Obama had passed his exams and was entitled to stay and complete the requirements for a PhD in economics. [...]

Not long afterward, Harvard asked the INS to hold up on Obama’s routine request for an extension of his stay, according to a June memo signed by immigration inspector M.F.McKeon. School administrators, the memo continued, “were having difficulty with his financial arrangements and couldn’t seem to figure out how many wives he had.’’

Although Harvard had previously assured the INS that Obama could continue his degree program, David D. Henry, then the director of the university’s international office,

abruptly advised him in a May let ter that he had three weeks to make the necessary preparations to return to Nairobi.

Despite his vigorous protest, Obama was compelled to leave the country in July.

[...]

In April 1961, McCabe called immigration officials and expressed concern that Obama had recently married a young woman named Stanley Ann Dunham[...]

INS officials considered whether Obama could be deported if he were convicted of bigamy, but decided against it. [...]

Although Obama frequently claimed to have earned a PhD from Harvard in the years to come and insisted he be called Dr. Obama, he never fully recovered from disappointment over his failure to get the degree he had worked so hard for. [...]
