It's a melting pot, not melted pot. One day we will all blend in. It is important to remember your heritage. I'm British but since we have been here the longest, we seem to forget our heritage for some reason. I have never heard any referred to as British-Americans. We've stood at the door welcoming guest longer than many, not always happily I might add, but none the least, here you all are. Just remember, who loves you...baby. Where do your loyalties ly. We all created this country where one can leave in peace and practice his or her beliefs.
When the time comes to step up and be counted, just remeber that. The past is the past.
