8/29    'For immigrants, Kennedy remained tireless advocate'

        'Kennedy remained an ally for immigrants and minorities, even though
         Massachusetts didn't have a sizable Latino or Asian population.
         "He had no constituency he was trying to serve, other than what he saw
         was fair and just," Mindiola said."'
        Now this was a real pro-immigrant senator, not like those so-called
        "pro-immigrant" vote-buying politicians.  I didn't know I benefited
        from him so much until after he passed away.  May he RIP.

        \_ Is he pro H1B? We need more H1Bs so that tech companies can be
           more competitive, by hiring cheap skilled PhDs.
           \_ He's now pro annelid.

              I'm not sure.  At a first glance he seems to be anti-H1B, but
              maybe he actually cast his vote according to the specific details
              of the bills and the then-current situation, rather than adopting
              a simple for/against position.  -- OP
