Angela, I think we are talking about two very different animals here.  I am
talking about a "model immigrant" - caucassian, relatively well educated,
escaping the "horrors of communism" - uebermenschen if you will.  

You are talking about ungrateful dark-skin people escaping the benefits of
US-imposed dictators, err... national saviors and IMF structural programmes
- tiermenschen if you will.
