As for demographics, Europe may be dependent on immigration but America is different. We have enough people here that we do not need to import them. And we can maintain the population with no problem.

Very naive to think so. This country could support 1 billion people fairly easily. And in order to compete successfully with India and China in the 21st century, we may have to.

It isn't the quantity of people that is important, it's the quality. That's why very small countries have been able to conquer others several times their size. Taiwan has been able to hold off China even though China is numerically superior. That's how the British were able to dominate the subcontinent of India.
