How times have changed! “Civil rights leaders were creating “publicity stunts” and John F. Kennedy was in office. Such “embarrassment” led to real change in this country, and it was change that required bold action, an action that was not popular at the time.” That’s precisely what we need today. A leader that will rise above the “stunts” and bring everyone to the table and get consensus to solve the immigration issue. It is doable. We all need to keep pushing so that real change can happen. It is interesting that a lot of people that at one time were illegal venerate the current President, when his record says it all when it comes to illegal immigrants. At least in the Norfolk-Virginia Beach area of Virginia.
