I never said English speaking peoples only..I said Europeans predominately..go back and check....why the lecture on European diversity?

This nation was founded by Europeans who came here for various reasons and who were up until recently 85% of the population.

If you think assimilating them from relatively similar cultural backgrounds is the same as going from that to a non-hispanic white minority in just 40 years or so is the same thing then we can just disagree.

Asians have until recently been such a small percentage as to be insignificant. Latinos aside from some Cubans and South Americans were until a generation ago a tiny minority who were brought into the US after it's founding by land acquisition.

As for the remainder of your tangential arguments. I never said them so why respond. I said the nation was founded and overwhelmingly supplied by Europeans of relatively similar backgrounds till very recently. That is inarguable.

My premise is this: I will make it very clear:

We were not founded as a diverse nation in the late 1700s. We were primarily white folks of all economic strata from Western Europe and slaves.....slaves who at the time of the founding were not yet in the numbers they became after the cotton gin in 1800. And we held fairly steady with that up until the 1980s but with more Catholic Irish and eastern Europeans..a few more Asians and Latinos and a large bump of unfree blacks in the early 1800s which was offset by the aforementioned Irish and Eastern Europeans.

What we have now which has steamrolled since Ted Kennedy's immigration overtures in the mid 1960s destined to enhance Democrat voting rolls is an avalanche of non white immigrants some legal, many not who have completely turned the balance upside down.

That sort of “diversity” is unsustainable in my view but it does appeal to those gleeful to dismantle the white majority here no matter how fractured it is.

Last election for the first time in history a candidate getting 53-55% of the white vote lost.

Why?

because now with so many non whites diluting that it will take 57-59% of whites to win for a conservative if minorities who almost all vote Left come out in the numbers they did for Bro.

I know of nowhere in the world where the diversity we have imposed on ourself works very well. Not one place...everywhere around the globe places formerly fairly homogeneous that have been over immigrated are feeling the effect.

All cultures are not relative.

I really don't know why you went off on the diversity of Europeans trip....that was not my point. However diverse Europeans are they are far more similar to each other racially, ethnically and religiously than they are to Asians, Africans and New World Amerindian Hispanics and Pacific Islanders....and that matters when groups come together to govern one another, platitudes printed on legal tender or not

I’m not fighting with ya, Iknow you are a smart guy but I’m just not very idealistic about these notions...and I have lived everywhere just about at one time or another from Asia to Africa and Latin America..was married to a Latina etc..
