George H.W. Bush: “We're not divided by classes as some other societies that are.”

Bigotry seems emboldened.

One of our major problems is, we do not have enough immigrants. We are going to have to do something about our immigration policy.

This means that people of every race, religion, ethnicity can be fully and equally American. It means that bigotry or white supremacy in any form is blasphemy against the American creed.

We've seen our discourse degraded by casual cruelty.
