With all due respect, as someone who is mixed race and the son of a legal immigrant, I have to disagree. Race is not the problem. Culture is the problem. I'm all for people of any race legally immigrating to the US, but damn it, they need to assimilate into our culture, not try to turn us into their little turd-world country (to borrow from Savage). We are having culture wars, plain and simple. I'm am American first and foremost, not a Hypenated-American. We need to retain our American culture, which is where we derive our strength. The libs/commies are eroding our culture at an alarming rate, same-sex marriage is a case in point. "Tolerance" and getting us to accept all of these other cultures is just another way to run the USA into the ground. Look at that picture of the Shi'a who cut his baby's head with a sword. Are we supposed to let that happen here in the US because it's a part of this person's culture?

Worth repeating. A great post!

James Earl Jones once used this very line to rebut a racial argument from Whoopie about African roots etc, when she had her TV show. He rendered her speechless as you can imagine.
