Just the other day, Republicans had to favor inviting the world to come on down and go on welfare. Affirmative action, too. And vote yourself other people’s property. That’s changed overnight. It’s a lesson to all of us how fast public opinion can shift, though usually after years of stewing. As always, change also requires breaking the death grip of the establishment. Of course, Ron Paul was never affected by the establishment meme. His excellent plan–no more birthright citizenship, no more naturalization, and no welfare or any other government “service,” including public schools, for immigrants–was the pioneer.
