I have my feelings about the border situation and "anchor babies".
However, I am currently reading "Wheels for the World", by Douglas Brinkley which is a biography of Henry Ford and covers others in the industrial revolution that took place in this country back around the turn of the century and beyond. Really a lot of history I missed in earlier life, probably for my own reasons. Grin
It covers the role immigrants played in the revolution and their adaptation to the American way of life. So, looking at the overall scope of things, this country was founded on immigrants.

One difference that I feel is significant today and that is the language barrier then and now. Maybe it was because the immigrants were diverse and formed their burroughs but still leaned the American version of the English language.
When you make a call and the person answering the phone says "for English press 1" it gets under your skin, big time. Course nobody of importance is going to fight it; too much money coming in with the foreign language, and with the rate if internal production will just get to be that much more.
So one has to ask just how long it will be before the voice says "for English press 2".
