BERNARD: President Bush-2 outlined immigrant strategy years ago

By Jack Bernard, Peachtree City, Ga. | A recent Gallup study examined long-term trends in immigration attitudes among Americans, a topic perhaps of particular interest to those in Gwinnett County. Surprisingly, it found that the number of Americans who wanted immigration decreased had not changed much in 50 years. Only 38 percent of Americans currently (7-16) want a decrease in immigration versus 33 percent in 1965.

FOCUS: Having affordable health care should not be a financial burden

By Jack Bernard, Peachtree City, Ga. | So far, over 12 million people have been enrolled in health insurance exchanges under the Affordable Care Act. Millions more have gotten Medicaid via the expansion option, for a total of 20 million. Obviously, there is still a long way to go to achieve full coverage for all of our citizens, but we should not denigrate our progress thus far. Let us remind you of what we faced before the first open enrollment period began in October, 2013.
