No, they wern't.Most of the immigrants who came here in the 19th century were diseased and illiterate. Next.
Florida - Military personnel at the US naval base at Guantanamo Bay have pitched 100 tents to prepare for a potential influx of Haitian refugees escaping the earthquake-ravaged capital, according to a Miami Herald report. The US Navy commander in charge of the controversial detention centre, Thomas Copeman, on Wednesday said the tents, capable of housing 1,000 people, were being pitched as a precautionary measure and training exercise.
US Coast Guard officials said that Haitians had not yet tried to flee the country by sea. This was due both to the massive relief effort underway and the large presence of ships and aircraft in the area, the report said.
The Guantanamo Bay detention centre, which now holds fewer than 200 prisoners, is located on the other side of the bay - around 30 minutes by ferry from the tent site.
Welcome to America. Now go home.
That's not at all what that poem stands for, and you know it. Oh wait, I guess that's what rich, white waspy MEN think it means.... you know the ones whose great great grandparents were able to read that in person as they floated into the NY harbor on boats and while they were gleefully exterminating my ancestors WHO WERE INDIGENOUS to this country just like everyone from Mexico, Central and South America are... INDIGENOUS to the Americas... Got that gringo?
Nobody was 'indigenous' to the Americas genius, they all came from somewhere else.Welcome to America. Now go home.

Perhaps because the report was in the Miami Herald, the poor dear got confused.
Oh yeah, and I say yea... if need be. You don't let people die like they did when they turned the boats back circa WWII.
The Obama administration is preparing to handle applications from as many as 200,000 undocumented Haitian immigrants who want to live and work legally in the United States under a new immigration program unveiled last week in the aftermath of Haiti's destructive earthquake.
The federal government will begin accepting Temporary Protected Status (TPS) applications on Thursday, according to U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services Director Alejandro Mayorkas, whose agency will process the paperwork.

Fair 'nuff. Thanks for the find. Do you think, just maybe, the applications that are going to be granted are going to be for people who have family here? (I don't know the answer either, btw).
I still say yea for the reason I said before.
Is that a Yea Lonestar? lol!
