But if we have these very successful people talking about why they believe it is bad--I have been present when Mr. Gates, Mr. Buffett, and Mr. Soros all talked about their belief that by a roll of the dice, a roulette wheel, they were born in America. They said they could have their entrepreneur genius--those are words I am using, not theirs--and if they were born anyplace but in the United States, it wouldn't amount to much. They believe as a result of their having been born in America, they owe that to America.
