Ah, here is where you go wrong - 'common nationality - American'

Improper use of the noun 'american', amigo .... leaving aside this über-teutonic habit of capitalising a term designating nationality, the Américas are rather larger than one nation, therefore 'americans', i.e. 'those of or pertaining to these Américas', are of many nations, not just one ..... you may not have been aware of how arrogant the appropriation of this term for a single nationality comes across to the Rest of Us in these lands, my fellow americano, but it does and it always has

The melting pot idea, you propose, where you get to define the terms, and you get to specify the supremacy of one language only ... uh-huh .... why not instead a bouillabaisse, it's more tastey, loses less flavour twixt the sea and the lip

This is our 'old country', right here on this rock, remember we never crossed the border, the border crossed us .... you want to bring up the subject of 'aliens', well it sounds like you're more alien than the brown folk, by far .... you may have the power to dictate such stripping of richness from those you control, but you might ask yourself, why would you want to ..... be aware that it's pretty clear to the hispano, that it's largely because the banners are too bloody lazy and/or mentally deficient to attempt to understand a tongue they paint as 'alien' though it has clearly been here far longer than they

Of the Lousiana purchase i know little, beyond the fact that its 200th anniversary is coming [there is an article on nytimes.com], but i believe it is quite unlike the taking of the northern half of México, which was completely illegitimate in all respects, purely a matter of conquest by slavers and haters of catholics .... check out the history, and not the version they were feeding in US schools up till a few years ago, the real thing makes it plain ..... there were four millions mexicanos then against fourteen millions anglos, and among the things we learned was to make more mexicanos, we have done that overly now, there are one hundred ten millions of us, for better or for worse ..... that, you will have to get over ..... and there is no reason you should prove incapable of so doing, nothing in the native threatens any legitimate values you may hold .... he is, after all, your fellow americano
