I don`t disagree that if the assimilation/mixing comes about "naturally " , that it is a good thing .... after all , this country really was and is a melting pot . The problem I have is that it seems that most of the ethnic groups don`t want to become Americans , but have America change to suit them .
This process should , IMO , not be a forced policy by the government .... and I wish I could find the statement that Bill Clinton made some years ago , where he said it was his aim to make the white race the minority in this country .

I would have to disagree that most ethnic groups don't want to assimilate. Just one in particular seems to be the largest portion of the problem.

I live in an area with a large Hispanic population along with new Russian immigrants. The Russians have to learn a new alphabet along with a new language and become fluent in English in far less than one generation. Much of the Hispanics don't even bother to learn.

What is hilarious at times is the Russian farmers hire migrant Hispanics to do field work and yell at them in Spanish.

Scott ... you are correct . I miss - spoke on that . It seems that the only group that doesn`t want to assimilate are the Hispanics . I used to cover Florida some years ago , and I went to areas that were just like Cuba ... no English spoken or understood .... and no desire to . When we went on service calls , I had to have an interpreter with me .... in America ! I was told that entire generations lived and died without any attempt to become part of this country . I`m also seeing that in other parts of the country now .
The Asians and others here do everything they can to assimilate .... and their children are 100 % American in all ways .
