Episode 80: What the Monroe Doctrine can teach us about immigration policy
Description
Americans are deeply divided on the issues of who should be allowed into our country, how many, and from where. Which principles should guide our sordid immigration debate? One longstanding American foreign policy tradition gives us an answer: the Monroe Doctrine. Authored by John Quincy Adams and articulated to Congress by James Monroe, the Monroe Doctrine is the position that opposes further European-style governance and colonization in the Western Hemisphere.
Join Zach as he explores the history and meaning of the Monroe doctrine and how it relates to immigration in this third part of a multi-part series on lessons we can learn from American history about our modern political troubles.

About the Green Dragon Tavern Show
“Talking a little treason.” Veteran political operative Zach Lautenschlager and retired MLB pitcher Dennis Sarfate bring breaking news and inside commentary on American culture, politics and business.
The Green Dragon Tavern is where Paul Revere and the Sons of Liberty gathered in Boston during the American Revolution. “Let us go to the Green Dragon and talk a little treason,” Founding Father Samuel Adams would say, tongue in cheek, according to legend.
Today, the Green Dragon Tavern Show is where free men and women gather in defense of freedom.
