Summary

I keep hearing people say “America is a country of immigrants.” I don’t agree with that. We are a country of citizens. People come here because they want to become Americans, not just to visit. The whole “country of immigrants” thing is an emotional argument that leaves out the real point: the goal is citizenship. I made this episode to set the record straight. Show Notes: [01:41]#1 We are a country of citizens. [09:21]#2 People want to become Americans. They want to actually be a part of what we have going on here. [14:37]#3 They are trying to make this argument about us being a country of immigrants as an emotionally swaying argument when it's a nonsense frame.
