*1952 Law.....*

*
**Wouldn't it be interesting if at some point during his campaigning 
Donald Trump said "oh by the way...."*

*
**_McCARRAN-WALTER ACT OF 1952_*

*Here's a historic fact that would seem to indicate that many, if not 
most, of the people we elect to go to Washington don't have the 
slightest idea of what laws already exist. I did not know of this until 
now.  It's been law for over 60 years.*

*
**Trump was recently severely criticized for suggesting that the U.S. 
should limit or temporarily suspend the immigration of certain ethnic 
groups,**__**nationalities, and even people of certain religions 
(Muslims).  The criticisms condemned such a suggestion as, among other 
things, being Un-American, dumb, stupid, reckless, dangerous and racist.*

*
**Congressmen and Senators swore that they would never allow such 
legislation, and the president called such a prohibition on immigration 
unconstitutional. As Gomer Pyle would say, Surprise, Surprise, 
Surprise!   It seems that the selective immigration ban is already law 
and has been applied on several**occasions. *

*Known as the McCarran-Walter Act, the Immigration and Nationality Act 
of 1952 allows for the **/"Suspension of entry or imposition of 
restrictions by president.  Whenever the president finds that the entry 
of aliens or of any class of aliens into the United States would be 
detrimental to the interests of the United States, the president may, by 
proclamation, and for such period as he shall deem necessary, suspend 
the entry of all aliens or any class of aliens as immigrants or 
non-immigrants or impose on the entry of aliens any restrictions he may 
deem to be appropriate.”/*

*
**The act was utilized by Jimmy Carter, no less, in 1979 to keep 
Iranians out of the United States, but he actually did more.  He made 
all Iranian students already here check in, and then he deported a 
bunch. Seven thousand were found in violation of their visas, 15,000 
Iranians were forced to leave the United States in 1979. It is of note 
that the act requires that an applicant for immigration****/“must be of 
good moral character and/****/attached to the principles of the 
Constitution”./*

*/
/**_Since the Quran forbids Muslims to swear allegiance to the U.S. 
Constitution, technically, all Muslims should be refused immigration._*
