My ancestors were Irish and Native American. Neither spoke very good English, actually. But they learned to speak the language, and didn't have their hands out for government assistance, or demand that we adopt their cultures, or demand to fly their flag. They blended into America as Americans. No hyphens, just Americans. The sooner people stop referring to their hyphenated ancestry, the sooner they become a part of this great country.
