• noting that, to prove a well-founded fear of future persecution, the harm alleged “must be particularized to the individual rather than suffered by the entire population” (citation omitted)

• rejecting alien’s argument that, as stateless person, he was entitled to asylum because no government would accept him; plain language of 8 U.S.C. § 1101(a)(42)(a) required stateless person to show same well-founded fear of persecution as individual with nationality
• prejudice in context of due process violation requires showing that outcome of proceeding “may well” have been different absent any procedural irregularities
