George W. Bush: Immigration is a defining asset of the United States. Here’s how to restore confidence in our system.

To be honest, I liked his dad better. For years, I've regularly borrowed wit, stealing the sobriquet "Bush the Lesser" from the public remarks of a young Indian woman whose name has since escaped me. But whatever faults he may have had, I think we can all agree Dubya was a decent guy at heart. I'm pre-ordering this one.

Next week, I’m proud to publish a new collection of my paintings, entitled “Out of Many, One.” The book may not set the art world stirring — hopefully, the critics won’t call it “One Too Many.”
I set out to accomplish two things: to share some portraits of immigrants, each with a remarkable story I try to tell, and to humanize the debate on immigration and reform.
I hope that these faces, and the stories that accompany them, serve as a reminder that immigration isn’t just a part of our heritage. New Americans are just as much a force for good now, with their energy, idealism and love of country, as they have always been.
