Dinesh D'SouzaDinesh D'souza, an Indian immigrant, wrote about his coming to America and what America meant, and means to him.   His story is not unique among legal immigrants, its just a story that is never printed in a MSM venue.

Thanks to HipHopRepublican for bringing it to our attention again.  It's a story that explains exactly what is worth fighting for.

Excerpt:

The immigrant cannot help noticing that America is a country where the poor live comparatively well. This fact was dramatized in the 1980s, when CBS television broadcast an anti-Reagan documentary, People Like Us, which was intended to show the miseries of the poor during an American recession. The Soviet Union also broadcast the documentary, with the intention of embarrassing the Reagan administration. But it had the opposite effect. Ordinary people across the Soviet Union saw that the poorest Americans had television sets and cars.
