This is interesting because my Wife insist Native Americans did NOT come from Asia and may well have been here all along.
A show on the History channel (Making of 10,000 BC) suggested 2 or more groups came here 13,500 years ago. One from Europe and another from Asia.
It’s just a easy for me to believe some groups may have come from the south.

Native Americans did NOT come from Asia - I don't want to be racist (but since race is the subject) I have always noticed a great similarity between the looks, skin tones, hair color, and eye color between American Indians and Asians.

I think you are right. I believe some Polynesians made it to South American and came north, making three ports of entry.

Problem is, there aren't any human remains that date back past 13-15K years in the Americas.

The Arctic languages are in two groups, and within those groups aren’t very differentiated, as if each is from a single, recent small-group arrival. Farther south in North America, and particularly in South America, the languages are a riot of unrelated and overlapping groups. This means (as one would expect, and which is taken as a given everywhere else in the world such conditions are found) that they’ve been there a long time and the linguistic ancestors didn’t arrive together.
