His concern originates in the fact that '... experience has shown the difficulty with which affection for the native country is dispelled, and its interests postponed, even when they are unfair, and the residence country favoured instead', which is why he wishes 'for us to be cautious and prudent in opening our gates to foreigners to participate in honours, offices and graces which form... the heritage of real Spaniards.'
Su preocupación proviene de "...que la experiencia ha demostrado la dificultad con que se borran las afecciones del país natural, y se posponen sus intereses, aun cuando sean injustos, a los del país de residencia" por lo que desea "que fueramos cautos y precavidos en abrir la puerta a los extranjeros a la participación de los honores, cargos y gracias que forman...el patrimonio de los verdaderos españoles"
