I don't even think you believe that nonsense. And even if you do, the equivalence of Irish culture versus Indian culture as each relates to America is apples and oranges.

There are few lies more absurd and more insidious than "as American as you or me".

I've said it for a long time, but the top 10% rule has screwed great Texas kids who absolutely love A&M or tu and would be much more loyal lifelong supporters/donors than these foreigners who come in, crush the top 10% rule and disappear after graduation.

Get back to the old days when being a legacy mattered.

sounds like you need to go back to ireland and put your talents toward raising its standard of living rather than stealing opportunities from real heritage americans like myself whose ancestors arrived 30 years before yours

it might seem hard to believe now, but once upon a time all of the arguments which are used today in opposition to skilled immigration from india were used against the irish. failure to assimilate on religious grounds (Catholicism), wage undercutting and labor displacement via employer exploitation, clannish hiring networks, sanitation crime and moral decline (slums and drunkenness), you name it.

the main difference, oddly enough, is in indians' favor. irish immigrants were poor and largely unskilled, whereas indian immigrants are heavily selected for education and skills. 100 year on, the descendants of irish immigrants are so interwoven into the fabric of the country that it seems almost bizarre that they were ever regarded the way folks like bo french regard indian-americans today.

We don't need mass immigration to develop an emerging nation.

We can't afford to wait another century for third-world immigrants to become American and lose their loyalty to their homelands. They will have strip-mined us (check out the PPP loans to Indian body shops and fake businesses) and left us with a worthless husk, like they've done to their own countries.

Today, Western Europe is 85% to 90% whiteor "European." The gigantic population shift in the last few decades is the equivalent of trading the demographics of Maine (90.1% white Western European) for those of Montana (84.6% white Western European). Even the UK is 82% whiteor the demographics of North Dakota (82.5%). The doomsday scenario is that, in a few years, Britain may have the demographics of South Dakota (80.5%).

Meanwhile, the U.S. is hanging on by a thread at 56.1% white Western European. As the U.S. barrels toward becoming another failed Latin American country, we haven't exactly been immune from the downsides of mass Muslim immigration, either. America had 9/11, the shoe bomber, the Boston Marathon bombing, the San Bernardino mass murder, the Pulse nightclub mass murder, the New York City truck attack, the New Orleans truck attack, and the Salman Rushdie stabbing.

uh huh, just like the irish did

She took a lot of words to convey a really simple message about which people are superior and which people are inferior (in her opinion).

But she's been out of circulation a while and needs something.

I just don't get how many adults (I'm guessing most on here are in their late 60's to late 70's maybe?) are more worked up about what those 8 students looked like than the outcome of the game).

Despite my being a native Texan, I think there are some pretty cool, educated, responsible and patriotic folks in my close friendship circle who moved here from other counties and they add huge value to the country and communities. But that's not a popular opinion which is fine.

They have done a brilliant job of controlling the language though. If any conservative even hints about anything at all on anyone who happens to have a darker hue of skin, then it's deemed racist and it shuts the conservative down, shames them, and sends them packing to ideological Siberia.

This is part of the problem. Everyone knows that great Indian or whoever from whatever 3rd world ****hole and thinks they're all great; that there's no problem. It's about the macro not the micro. The left has mastered using the micro to get whatever they want in the macro.

Because they don't/wont fight back.

Is your position about regulating immigration on a macro level? If yes, I'm aligned.

Or is it that a person's ability to be considered a true Texan / American hinges on where their ancestors are from rather than where they were born, raised, lived, served in the military, raised their own kids, etc? If that's the position, guess we just disagree.

This thread has gone a ton of different directions, with a number of folks seeming to imply that individual merit , commitment, patriotism is less relevant than bloodline and ancestry. So just trying to clarify.

I stopped paying attention to this on Sunday morning but this tangent made me laugh.

Karl Rove has been a Democrat for the last decade. https://t.co/raQK85TDpV

Trump is correct. Rove and by extension the Bush family have been bad for the Republican party.

To be fair, Trump doesn't believe ANY leader in the history of the universe is as brilliant or successful as he is.

I agree.
'But when I went with my son to his required new student conference a few years ago, the speakers were giddy about the number of " First Generation Students" in the room. It was clear that was their goal/ parameter of success. They had a special lunch spot and program for the " First Generation Students" and their family. With a special advisor for them to access during their college stay.

Never was there any mention of second, third, fourth, or fifth generation Aggies in the room, or their families who have often donated to and supported the school for 100 plus years. Mine is a fourth generation student with lots of family ties to our school.

That's the problem I see with it. Texas (the university) is down to about 30% white now which is wild. They no longer represent the state of Texas.

It's a California school in a California town in the state of Texas.

this is good, and right, and necessary for us to be a superpower - is that your stance?

The demographics changes happened, man. The US looks very different today than it did 50 years ago and will look very different in 50 years than it does today. All these folks are Americans, regardless of what they look like or who their ancestors are. Division based on arbitrary factors such as skin color and not merit will only weaken us as a whole.

---

If they were albino we wouldn't want them either. Skin color is such a weak argument. Skin color is only an easy heuristic for your region of origin.

---

As was pointed out, these folks are American, born and raised in the US. In many cases, their parents too were born in the US. Can you explain why you don't them then if it isn't skin color? And while you are at it, show how it isn't as arbitrary as skin color.

---

This is an abject lie. More than half of all Indians have arrived in the US since 2010. There is a very high chance that none of the people in the picture in the OP were born here at all.
