The program was placed under the direction of Vice President Al Gore. We received from the GAO a few e-mails indicating Vice President Gore's role in the plan," Schippers said. "He was responsible for keeping the pressure on, to make sure the aliens were pushed through by September 1, the last day to register for the presidential election." Four years later, in the lead-up to the 2000 election, the Florida INS ran an effort called the "Backlog Reduction Program," said Judicial Watch, which it describes as "a neutral, bureaucratic-sounding title designed to lower the program's visibility with the media and the general public." As part of the program, INS examiners and clerks who "met or exceeded headquarters' goals and quotas [for naturalizing aliens] ... were rewarded with various types of bonuses, including an extra 40 hours of paid time off," the source told Judicial Watch. The legal watchdog group said its source also reported that some of the naturalization processes were allegedly performed illegally. "As part of this program," the group said, "non-English speakers have had naturalization interviews illegally conducted in the alien's native language, as well as a case where an alien -- without any residence, family or business ties in the U.S. -- was naturalized only three days after returning to the U.S. from an 11-and-a-half month absence from the country." "This sounds like another illegal 'import-a-voter' program by the Clinton-Gore administration," said Judicial Watch president Tom Fitton. "Leave it to Clinton and Gore to desecrate the citizenship process." "Judicial Watch will pursue these charges no matter who comes to occupy the White House," added chairman Larry Klayman. In 1996, Schippers' book reveals, the Clinton administration was clearly "circumventing normal procedures for naturalizing aliens -- procedures that check backgrounds and weed out criminals -- and consequently they were handing out citizenship papers to questionable characters." The impeachment prosecutor, who for years prosecuted Mafia cases in Chicago, said the idea for using the INS to rapidly naturalize new potential Democratic voters was first introduced to the White House by then-Secretary of Housing and Urban Development Henry Cisneros in a memo. In my (Ben-Wa) not so humble opinion, I would bet that a revote in Palm Beach county would find many of these people all of a sudden popping up to vote. -
