"What we need are critical lovers of America - patriots who express their faith
in their country by working to improve it."
Hubert H. Humphrey
"Immigration
refers to the movement of people between countries.
While the
movement of people has
existed throughout human history at various levels,
modern immigration implies long-term
permanent residence.
Short-term visitors and
tourists
are considered non-immigrants (see
expatriate).
Immigration
across national borders in a way that violates the
immigration
laws of the destination country is termed
illegal immigration.
Under
this definition, an illegal immigrant is a foreigner who
either illegally crossed an international political
border, whether
by
land, water, or air, or a foreigner who legally entered
a
country
but overstays his/her
visa in
order to live and/or work therein. Seasonal labour
migration, while generally
non-permanent in nature
(typically
for periods of less than a
year), is often treated as a
form of immigration. The United
States
is a nation of immigrants. All its people's ancestors
come from around the globe."
