20. I'd like to know how the hell D'Souza got his green card, let alone citizenship.

The reason we have so much illegal immigration in this country is because it is nearly impossible to legally get a green card. There is a stingy quota set for each country and the amount of people who apply vastly outnumbers those slots. Then your only options, other than coming here illegally, are (1) marry an American or (2) develop an important skill unfilled by Americans that an American company needs and will hire you for or (3) win one of the few "lottery" slots.

I'm guessing his family has money, came in under the skill option, and he came over with them as a child.
