They know we can do better. I suppose the politically safe thing would be to move on from this episode and just hope that it fades into the woodwork. Their experience is the immigrant experience - as far as they're concerned, no one's handed them anything, they've built it from scratch. It is that promise that has always set this country apart - that through hard work and sacrifice, each of us can pursue our individual dreams but still come together as one American family, to ensure that the next generation can pursue their dreams as well.
