I travel the world and I'm happy to say that America is still the great melting pot - maybe a chunky stew rather than a melting pot at this point but you know what I mean.
I have the utmost respect for those who have come to this country legally and have contributed to the great melting pot that is America today. But those who have crossed our borders illegally have broken the law and the law ought to be enforced.

Sydney in general is eclectic. You can be on that brilliant blue ocean walk in the morning and then within 20 minutes you can be in a completely vast suburban sprawl or an Italian or Asian suburb and it's that mix of people it's that melting pot of people that give it its vital personality.
Future generations are not going to ask us what political party were you in. They are going to ask what did you do about it when you knew the glaciers were melting.
I love Caribbean food. It's a great melting pot of so many cultures including the Native Americans.
