No, their skin color does not matter, but the extent of their assimilation does. Do they know the meaning of the 4th of July?, Thanksgiving?, Veteran's Day?. Do they know what happened at Bull Run, Yorktown, Harper's Ferry?
Or do they only know or care about their own history, traditions and culture?
Many studies indicate that too many modern immigrants don't have a clue about America's history, and that they can successfully live insulated lives within a cultural barrio of their own choosing; neither learning English or caring about the history of the country that gives them the freedom to do so.
Still worse are those, such as some Muslims, who come to feed off what a democratic Republic offers, while planning its overthrow.
I don't like Buchanan, but we must face the reality of what too much immigration, too fast, has done to our country.
The Democrats know, and they will exploit and encourage it until there is no more Republican party to speak of, or, for that matter, no Republic to speak of.

I agree more immigrants need to be taught American history. But in the same regard, we need to teach AMERICAN children our nation's history.
White suburban schoolchildren do not know who Thomas Jefferson or Benjamin Franklin are. How can we hold these immigrants to a higher standard than we have for our own children.
If we are to assign blame, we must look to ourselves and our school system that is not doing its job.
