Transcript: King: ...You put out a
beacon like the Statue of Liberty and who comes here? The most vigorous from
every country that has donated legal immigrants to America. The cream of the
crop. We've always had bird dogs around our place in our family there's a black
lab and white lab a yellow lab, and my brother has a chocolate lab. Well you go
in and you look at a litter of pups, and you watch them. You watch how they play
-- they run around a little bit -- and what do you want? You want a good bird
dog, and you want one that's gonna be aggressive? Pick the one that's the
friskiest, the one that's in games the most -- not the one that's over there
sleeping in the corner. You want a pet to sit on the couch, pick the one that's
sleeping in the corner. That's -- so, you get the pick of the litter, you got
yourself a pretty good bird dog. We got the pick of every donor civilization on
the planet because it's hard to get here, you had to be inspired to come. We got
the vigor from the planet to come to America. Whichever generation it was, and
then we taught our children that same thing.
