BANNING AMERICANS:
Immigrants From Banned Nations: Educated, Mostly Citizens and Found in Every State (FORD FESSENDEN, JASMINE C. LEE, SERGIO PEÇANHA and ANJALI SINGHVI, JAN. 30, 2017, NY Times)
As a whole, residents from the seven predominantly Muslim countries, especially Iranians and the small group of Libyans, are better educated than the rest of America. People from Syria and Sudan also tend to be better educated than the national average. [...]Most United States residents from these seven countries have become citizens, a rate higher than that of the foreign-born population in the country as a whole. A small number, about 10,000, have served in the American military.
