Remember, DP- America may be a melting pot, but you can't have a melting pot when things don't actually melt.
America IS NOT a Melting Pot
America IS a Mixed Salad though...

We do not melt and blend into one.
We combine unique differences and mix together to make each other taste better under the blanket covering of a yummy dressing.

Black are not white, just as croutons are not tomatos.
Spanish is not English, just as endive lettuce is not butter lettuce.

But we all come together into this wonderful salad of solidarity called America if mixed well enough.
