Those are all European races. Europeans founded the United States.

The British/Scotch/Germanic Americans of the 1800s would not have thought this way; the Irish, Italians, Poles, etc. were not "their kind" of European, and therefore suspect.

However, the question is not "who" founded the US, but "what." "What" founded the US is a combination of Judeo-Christian ethics and Aristotelian-Lockean political organization. Anyone of any culture willing to accept this combination could, and can, become an American, regardless of originating culture or race. Conversely, anyone of any culture unwilling to accept this combination chafes at becoming, or being, an American, regardless of originating culture or race.

The Korean immigrants who run the Oriental food store in the next town are not "white," but they are willing to accept Judeo-Christian ethics and are willing to accept the self-responsibility necessary for the bottom-up Aristotelian-Lockean politics that are embodied in our Constitution, and so, just as the Irish ate stew and the Italians ate pasta and the Poles ate kielbasa, the Koreans eat kimchi and bulgogi, but they think of themselves as Americans and have become just as much a part of the society as...the (legal) Mexicans who live down the street from me, who have outdoor fiesta parties a few times a year, play mariachi music and eat tortas, but pay their own bills and raise their own children and make the neighborhood a better place.

And that is why the races that make up America don't, and won't, matter--except for those that don't, or won't, accept Judeo-Christian ethics and Aristotelian-Lockean politics, and thereby continue to be a thorn in the side of the society, not because of the color of their skin, but because of the content of their character.

I understand and mostly agree with what you say, but people are complaining that the modern crop of immigrants are not assimilating like the ones in prior times did (plus we have less resources now) and that we are being over-run by one specific race of people, AND those people disproportionately to other races, are here illegally. I believe in the melting pot idea but when one ingredient overwhelms the rest and also refuses to blend in and create a harmonious flavor the end result is a pungent undesirable dish. In other words, when my cousin who has seizures, back issues, and is brain cancer survivor tries for 3 years before she’s approved for disability and my elderly parents who’ve worked their whole lives and exhausted their retirement savings can barely scrape by and when I go visit them I feel like I’m in Mexico with loud Spanish music, kids running around unruly, sloppy drunk men ogling pre-teen girls and thug looking guys giving the evil eye to whitey as they drive past the yard YES I am resentful. I’d rather they go back home not because of the color of their skin but because they are taking valuable resources and quality of life away from many of us.
