She told GEO magazine, "Soon there will probably be as many Mexicans in Texas, New Mexico, lower California, and Arizona-and as many Cubans and Latin Americans in Florida-as there are natives…They are also pouring in from Haiti. Now a vast majority of these are illegal. They’re coming over the border, and they're coming with wives and sisters and nieces who get pregnant immediately because they can then become American citizens and go on relief. I do not know how much more we can absorb…In the 19^th century, the U.S. absorbed something like 40 million immigrants. But the vast majority were of a fundamental culture, and they were all white. They were not black or brown or yellow." She went on to say that "to prefer the ways of one’s own culture is not racist." America is being overrun by people who are not given to white Western folkways and mores.
