Jeremy - If America had kept its borders sealed, the Native Americans would still be in charge and buffalo would still be roaming the plains!

And insted of New York skyscrapers there would be tepees! The essence of America is that it is a SALAD BOWL. If it wasn't, you'd still be living in Europe! Your family had the chance to emigrate to look for a btter lifestyle and yet you want to deny this right to other people on the basis of their skin, religion, creed etc!
