The Vision Thing

It is comments like these at a fundraiser in San Fancisco that make me question not only the judgment, but also the patriotism, yes, the patriotism, of President Obama and the liberal elite of which he is almost perfectly representative:

"No matter who you are. No matter where you can came from. No matter what you look like. No matter whether your ancestors landed here on Ellis Island or came here on slave ships or came across the Rio Grande, we are all connected. We will rise and fall together. That's the vision of America I've got, that's the idea of the heart of America,...That's the idea at the heart of our campaign."

An America where we cannot make common-sense distinctions about who is and who is not a citizen, is no America at all.  And no America at all is, I'm increasingly convinced, what they are ultimately after.
