Consider one of the greatest threats to much of what we hold dear: The effects from a vast incongruous immigration over a long, poorly secured, southern border. You do not forgo outrage among Conservative patriots, incensed over a deliberate sabotage to our sovereignty, security, cultural heritage & family pride, by enlarging the focus in the argument. You do not abandon normal outrage towards those, who come here in contempt of our laws, to then demonstrate hostility to our culture & ethnic descent, when you calmly discuss what made America what it has been.
Those who do not wish to see a Mexicanization of California, will be just as apt to rally to a candidate who opposes what has been happening, by describing in detail the heritage & achievements of the original settlers; by praising the growing heritage & achievements of their descendants, from whose ranks the Founding Fathers emerged. You lose nothing in acknowledging the proven worth of those who came later, seeking not to change America, but to adapt to America & the Americans--earlier immigrants in a less crowded age, who gladly accepted & defended the proud traditions.
