As far as this movie goes, however, it tells an engineer's journey from his small Indian village to Chicago so he can live the American dream, become a success and maybe, just maybe, live up to his father's great legacy. Funny how life works, huh? Regardless, that's neither here nor there. All of the president's children were mothered by TWO immigrant women. The president's mother is, in fact, an immigrant. Of course it wasn't called the American dream just yet, but they were searching for a lot of the same things that latter immigrants (of which they're part of) And then the current president came along and decided that, if you weren't a full-blooded (mostly white) American, then your American dream could get fucked and completely took a shit on the immigrants who laid the groundwork for most of what we have here this day. Hell, even the first Pilgrims were in search of their dreams and freedom from persecution. The Statue of Liberty, a symbol of hope and freedom to these people. The reason why so many immigrants decided to come to the United States where, they felt, everyone has a shot at success as long as they work hard.
