this is a dangerous place for the republican party to be, to go back to rick's point, which is i'm sure why he's so pissed off here. because the multicultural society in this country is only going to grow. i'm sorry, john, but there are going to be more black and brown babies born than white babies born, you know, very soon -- >> and you're getting at -- maria, you're getting at the crux of it. this is what people are very concerned about the demographics of the country changing. there's nothing you can do about it. rick, go on. >> i go back to this again. i'm curious that john doesn't have any objection to norwegian workers coming here to take high-skilled high-paying jobs or other workers with a mysterious demographic characteristic, i can't put my finger on, but you know, it goes back to a broader question. america is not a voke. we're not a narod. we are not a race of people. we're a proposition. we are an idea.
