Sure it does. Similar 'Rats, similar reason for wanting millions and millions of Mexican Socialists to jump the border. Plenty of similarities, in an issue going back to the 1940's and the
bracero program, and Lyndon Johnson's attempt in 1954 to keep the
braceros in the States so they could take out First Papers and eventually
vota democratica. Pres. Eisenhower stepped on LBJ's oversized foot stuck in the door, but as soon as he slimed his way into office, LBJ immediately brought in Teddy to run his Infinite Mexicans immigration bill through Congress.
And no, no Republicans from the GOP-E were fighting LBJ back then, either.
