Not just New York. The second biggest St. Patrick’s Day Parade is Savannah, GA. Of course there are big celebrations in Boston and Chicago.
I am waiting for American Indian Month, Asian American Month, and Euro-American Month. I think it will be a long wait.

Both of us will have gone the way of the dinosaurs before that will ever happen — and the only thing that could make that change, is if politicians thought supporting white, God-fearing, taxpaying, hardworking Americans would get them more votes.....nothing else is important to Washington, other than personal empowerment.
Sam Walton loved Hispanics. He gave an awful lot of money educating Central Americans that he brought up here, the Walton Scholars. I met Sam and Helen, sang for both of them...with a bunch of Hispanics. He was proud of what he was doing and of these people. And he when it came to the stock in his stores, he tried to buy American but he'd still buy what ever was cheapest even if that meant buying Chinese crap. He invested heavily in Mexico and Central America. Walmex is now Mexico's largest private sector employer. You don't know jack about Sam Walton. He's not rolling over in his grave. I'm sure he's proud of the legacy he left behind and he would be happy to know that Walmart was celebrating Hispanic Heritage month.
Being fair and kind of people of different races, such as Hispanics is one thing. It’s admirable.
But Walmart’s reliance on Mexican and Chinese goods is another thing. Walmart gets over 70% of its goods from communist China, and the rest of most of its other goods come from South of the Border.
What ever happened to Walmart’s “Buy American First” mantra?
Walmart found that Americans won't buy American products if they cost more.
