Theodore Roosevelt's ideas on Immigrants and being an AMERICAN in 1907

'In the first place, we should insist that if the immigrant who comes here in good faith becomes an American and assimilates himself to us, he shall be treated on an exact equality with everyone else, for it is an outrage to discriminate against any such man because of creed, or birthplace, or origin. But this is predicated upon the person's becoming in every facet an American, and nothing but an American. There can be no divided allegiance here. Any man who says he is an American, but something else also, isn't an American at all. We have room for but one flag, the American flag. We have room for but one language here, and that is the English language. And we have room for but one sole loyalty and that is a loyalty to the American people.'
Theodore Roosevelt 1907

  2. My, how the mighty have fallen. Once a proud nation led by heroes, we now are a dismal nation led by that sack-of-crap Obama, that sack-of-crap Kerry, those sacks-of-crap Ryan and McConnell. We have a sack-of-crap, Clinton, running for president, and 47% of our nation is supporting that sack-of-crap no matter how bad she stinks. Unbelievable!

  6. All of this "multiculturalism" is going to further divide America. There is no one saying that you cannot have sub-cultures such as Italian-American or Sino-American historic cultural observances but you must first and foremost be an American.
