Theodore Roosevelt's ideas on Immigrants and being an AMERICAN in 1907.
"In the first place, we should insist that if the immigrant who comes here in good faith becomes an American and assimilates himself to us, he shall be treated on an exact equality with everyone else, for it is an outrage to discriminate against any such man because of creed, or birthplace, or origin. But this is predicated upon the person's becoming in every facet an American, and nothing but an American...There can be no divided allegiance here. Any man who says he is an American, but something else also, isn't an American at all. We have room for but one flag, the American flag... We have room for but one language here, and that is the English language... and we have room for but one sole loyalty and that is a loyalty to the American people."
Theodore Roosevelt 1907
Every American citizen needs to read this!

isnt that the truth
From Snopes = TRUE
and a little more to add - check out Snope for the whole story
]"Let us say to the immigrant not that we hope he will learn English, but that he has got to learn it.[/B] Let the immigrant who does not learn it go back. He has got to consider the interest of the United States or he should not stay here. He must be made to see that his opportunities in this country depend upon his knowing English and observing American standards. The employer cannot be permitted to regard him only as an industrial asset.

me too. I am not a very political person, but shit man. These fukin liberals or whoever pushes this shit for a vote are ruining our country.
I don't care if you are white, black, brown....whatever. I don't care if we don't agree on shit other than one thing. Love America. If you are illegal than do all you can "legally" to become American........you know, all that shit.
I have actually hired a illegal off the streets to do some work at my house. He was such a good guy, worker, and wanted to learn English and become an American....I put his ass through school to learn English and become a citizen.
