Even liberals disagree with you. We are not a melting pot.

Even within gateway cities that give the outward appearance of being multicultural, there are sharp lines of ethnic segregation. When describing the ethnic diversity of a bellwether megacity such as Los Angeles, many residents speak soaringly of the great mosaic of many peoples. But the social scientists who look at the hard census data see something more complex

Another great American myth portrays America as “the great melting pot,” a gumbo of sorts, in which people come from all over the world, from different nations, ethnicities, and cultures, to become one.

The Melting Pot That Never Was | Opinion | The Harvard Crimson

Despite the movement towards a more diverse and integrated society, America still isn’t the melting pot it claims to be. Instead, it’s a compartmentalized storage unit,

This melting pot view pervades America’s self-perception. It is the belief that ours is a country of immigrants from around the world. A melting pot means that many ingredients are added to a pot and the result is a mixture of all creating a new taste or unique American culture. But that is not the case.

Study: Nearly 25 Percent of DACA Illegal Aliens Are ‘Functionally Illiterate’ in English

Nearly 25 percent of illegal aliens eligible for former President Obama’s Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program are “functionally illiterate” in the English language, a researcher says.
According to Center for Immigration Studies Director of Research Steven Camarota, about 24 percent of illegal aliens who are eligible for DACA — which President Trump administration will officially end in March 2018 — overstate their English proficiency skills and are “below basic” or “functionally illiterate.”


They should either assimilate or hit the gate...at the southern border. BUILD THE WALL.

LOL, I bet even more Americans are illiterate. The stupid **** the right says to try argue their ridiculous position is amazing. They might as well just come and and say I don't like brown people. That would at least have some fact to it

it is also ridiculous as most countries throughout the world teach multiple languages, while dumb rednecks fight against really teaching kids multiple languages. WE should be teaching english along with Spanish or other languages when kids are young and its easy. Of course, these people would never be able to learn another language, but of course, they are hypocrites so what applies to other doesn't have to apply to them

Sure, it has NOTHING to do with NOT wanting to import illiteracy, right?

No, it really had alot to do with sound money, limited regulations, property rights, etc. 1924-1970 is proof that we can build up a nation without mass immigration.
