I don't disagree, but at this late date, what is our commonality? Like most things, multiculturalism has an "opposite" - uniculturalism. In this alternative model, American culture would be promoted and held forward as something of superior value which should be embraced.

...but what is it? In an era where more of our own citizens would identify with:


...than with...



Have we have passed the point of no return and have gone from being a nation with a society to an economic collective of individuals? Do we have a culture left to celebrate?

I would say that we do have to go backward a bit. I lived in Britain on the early 80's and people used to ask me the greatest difference in the countries. I would say "here, when someone is successful,people will look at him and say 'why is he successful, he doesn't deserve that, I do'". I would then point out that in America, when someone is successful people will look at him and say "if he can be successful, then so can I". Sadly, now in America, people are just jealous of success and try to bring a successful person down instead of trying to be like him. Socialism is gaining ground on us here; we must stop it!
