Our culture is changing. We are loseing our European heritage. People like myself will be a minority in my lifetime, and selfishily, im not looking forward to it.
Lets face it, we are a white christian nation. I like it that way, I like the culture. I like my poloticians being like me. I dont want to be a big Mexico.
Being a white Christian nation is fine but the tone in which the term was used by the poster above was derrogatory. Our Nation and all other progressive Nations have EVOLVED. That is much different than collapsing into a pile of ruins. We're not the same as we were when the Puritans were in charge and that's a good thing.
We can't limit our immigrants to white Europeans, and that will not destroy America. The people I see taking the oath of allegiance are every color and very proud and thankful to be official Americans. These same immigrants fought in all of our wars for their country, not their old country.
As long as the assimilation process is successful, which it has proven to be, America will be the stronger for it. Only illegals bring their culture and languages with them because they have no feeling of attachment. The German language died out of my family in two generations.
It's the kids who cement the families to America. They pick up the slang, customs, songs, dress, of the kids they go to school with. That's because they're kids and want to fit into the social scene. As long as that adaptability is there, America and other "evolving" countries will change for the better.
By the way, mixtures of Euro-Asians, and other such marriages produce beautiful children.
I don't mean to just keep harping on this subject but it reminded me of a conversation I had some years ago with a guy I worked with. He was from a Mexican lineage and was dating a great looking blonde girl, who later became his Wife, so he was nervous about meeting her parents for the first time. When they arrived at her home, she told him to have a seat while she dressed for their date. The poor guy was sweating bullets. Soon a black fellow came in and sat down across from him and spoke, then started reading the paper. He was so surprised, he was speechless. He didn't even suspect that this was her Step-Father. Then her mother came in to meet him, she was a tall blonde, older version of his girlfriend. That had to be the most awkward moment of his life, not knowing what to say, who to say it to, or if he could speak at all. But that's America, always has been, and it just keeps getting stronger.
