| But on what basis can we say that? Do would-be immigrants have a
| "right" to come here? I assume Gottfried would agree with me that
| they do not. Why not? I would say: because America is a regime,
| constituted by a sovereign people, who instituted and now maintain
| their government via a social compact. Gottfried's ancestors, and
| mine, were admitted to that compact by the consent of its existing
| members. I believe that, right now, it is unwise to admit new
| members. I would like the sovereign American people--the currently
| existing members--to limit immigration via the political
| institutions they (ostensibly) control. What would Gottfried say?
Which faculty and alumni of Claremont.ORG will Trump invite to
serve as WhiteHouse.GOV speechwriters?
