Are U.S. passports a thing of the past ? — Is U.S. citizenship ?

Well, not quite....   But, some important people are pushing for it     


And those folks are completely in sync with and echo President Barack Obama’s policies, rhetoric and ideology that "We are all Americans"  —   especially, when referring to all those other "North Americans" still outside our borders


Possibly, George Soros isn’t directly behind this   —   But Soros’ son, Jonathan, and a Soros-funded group, “The New America Foundation,” certainly are


Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton isn’t very far away from these proposals and their authors, either



According to World Net Daily’s top correspondent, Jerome Corsi,  “ ...  A Soros-funded group arguing to replace the U.S. passport with a North American passport appears ready to take up the mantle of championing the concept of a European Union-style regional government to supersede the sovereignty of the United States, Mexico and Canada, fulfilling the dream of the late American University professor Robert Pastor. ***  The future of the U.S. lies in North America, not in the United States as a sovereign nation, contends the New America Foundation, a Washington-based leftist think-tank with ties to Jonathan Soros, son of famed leftist billionaire George Soros. ***   Appropriately named ‘New America,’ the foundation believes the U.S. passport should soon become obsolete and replaced with a European Union-style passport issued for all citizens of the U.S., Mexico and Canada. Citizens would be redefined by their regional identity as “North Americans,” echoing President Obama’s claim in Spanish in his Dec. 17, 2014, announcement of his executive actions to re-establish diplomatic relations with Cuba, ‘Todos Somos Americanos,’ or, ‘We are all Americans’...”  ( See “U.S. Passports on Verge of Elimination ?  –  Soros-funded plan champions 'North American Union' ” by Jerome R. Corsi, 1/28/15, World Net Daily [http://www.wnd.com/2015/01/u-s-passports-on-verge-of-elimination/]).

IT’S ALSO COMING FROM SOME OF HILLARY CLINTON’S POLICY WONKS

Daniel Kurtz-Phelan, a fellow at the New America Foundation and a former adviser on Secretary of State Hillary Clinton’s policy planning staff, along with André Martinez, also an editor with New America and a professor at the Cronkite School of Journalism at Arizona State University have said the following:  “The United States, Canada and Mexico are bound by a shared economic, environmental, demographic and cultural destiny. How we move forward together is key to our success....”  (See “Why we need a North American Passport” by Daniel Kurtz-Phelan & André Martinez,       , 1/26/15, CNN/ Opinion [CNN.com[http://www.cnn.com/2015/01/26/opinion/martinez-kurtz-phelan-north-american-passport/]).

Also, the President of the New America Foundation is another former hand of Hillary Clinton’s, Anne-Marie Slaughter.

PASSPORTS ARE NECESSARY  —   BUT NOT U.S. PASSPORTS

The Phelan-Martinez article goes on to state that “In recognition of our shared destiny, the three countries should create a North American passport that would, over time, allow their citizens to travel, work, invest, learn and innovate anywhere in North America. Work, tourist and student visas are necessities in the modern world to regulate the flow of people between sovereign states....”

HUH !   What about U.S. passports ?   Well, I guess they are just not modern enough for these
 folks.

THESE FOLKS ALSO SAY REPUBLICANS HAVE CHANGED THEIR STANCE ON IMMIGRATION

Another of the interesting points raised by Phelan and Martinez in their CNN opinion piece is that Republicans need to change their stance on immigration matters.  Here’s exactly how they put it, “Republicans are recognizing that their prior stance on immigration needs to change if they want to win over voters in the next presidential election....”  Please note the nuances: it’s not SOME Republicans; it’s not BEGINNING TO RECOGNIZE it’s not their CURRENT stance; and it’s not MIGHT or COULD or even WILL change  —   NO !  It’s a done deal.  The Republicans went into the tank on the immigration fight

WHO OR WHAT  IS THE NEW AMERICA FOUNDATION ?

According to Jerome Corsi’s reporting,  The New America Foundation gets millions of dollars in funding by a blue-chip list of leftist donors along with government funding in the form of a seven-figure grant from the U.S. State Department and a six-figure grant from the U.S. Agency for International Development.

Prominent among a list of nearly 150 different funding sources is Google Inc., reflecting the participation of Eric Schmidt, CEO of Google, who is also on the New American Foundation’s Board of Trustees.  Also on the Board is Jonathan Soros, CEO of JS Capital Management LLC, a private investment firm, Jonathan Soros is also credited on the New American Foundation website as holding several board positions affiliated with the George Soros Open Society Foundations.

The president and CEO of the New American Foundation is Anne-Marie Slaughter, who previously served as Director of Policy Planning at the U.S. State Department, where she worked for Hillary Clinton from January 2009 through February 2011.

Leave Hillary out of your nonsensical conspiracy stories.

This just in: Romney is not running for President. He is not afraid of taking on fellow Republicans in the GOP primary but running against Hillary in the general election terrifies him.

RESPONSE: THE "TWO FOR THE PRICE OF ONE" EDITION

REMEMBER THAT OLD CHESTNUT ?

To the comment maker(s) above - Hillary doesn't scare anybody because she is a terrible candidate, who can't campaign and has a closet full of skeletons.

She also keeps falling down and bumping her head, and when she gives speeches often gets momentarily spacey and has difficulty focusing her vision and her speech. What's that all about --- serious clinical brain damage ? Or maybe it's some progressive age-related disease.

What do the medical records say ? Oh, we don't have them yet.

Ask Grimm if passports are a thing of the past. His was confiscated last year.

UPDATE: THE “RANDY APPROACH TO HILLARY CLINTON” EDITION

RAND PAUL SAYS THAT HE SEES HILLARY AS “YESTERDAY'S NEWS, “A BLAST FROM THE PAST, ”OUTMODED" AND "NOT FORWARD THINKING"

IF THE RACE WERE TO BE BETWEEN HILLARY C. AND RAND P. — WHICH WOULD BE THE REAL AGENT FOR CHANGE


When a reporter asked for Rand Paul for his thoughts on Mitt Romney’s leaving the 2016 presidential race and what it meant for the rest of the GOP candidates, Rand said this:
“I think it indicates there’s going to be some new candidates—quite a few new candidates—when this thing shapes up.... And it may be a great deal of contrast sort of between today’s news and yesterday’s news. I think Hillary Clinton is, in some ways, a blast from the past, in the sense that I really think she represents policies that are outmoded and not really forward thinking....” (See “Rand Paul in Dallas: Hillary Clinton‘Yesterday’s News,’ A ‘Blast from the Past’ ” by Matthew Boyle, 1/20/15, Breitbart News/ Big Government [http://www.breitbart.com/big-government/2015/01/30/rand-paul-in-dallas-hillary-clinton-y])
