Yes, contrary to his current plight - we need more American science and engineering doctorates, PhDs, etc.
Besides, I found someone of national notoriety talking about what I have been for years now... We need more smart people.
Bad news:
Two-thirds of doctoral candidates in science and engineering in U.S. universities are foreign-bornWhere are the Americans??
But, do we use the foreign-born talent? No, we kick em out...
...a subject about which the loquacious presidential candidates are reluctant to talk — immigration, specifically that of highly educated people. Concerning whom, U.S. policy should be: A nation cannot have too many such people, so send us your PhDs yearning to be free.
Instead, U.S. policy is: As soon as U.S. institutions of higher education have awarded you a PhD, equipping you to add vast value to the economy, get out. Go home. Or to Europe, which is responding to America's folly with "blue cards" to expedite acceptance of the immigrants America is spurning. -George Will, Don't Deport the Tech Talent

Poor American educational drive - too content, too 'entitled'.
Flawed immigration policy.
Bah!
