"These are not our values" "Nation of immigrants". and other persuasion tools, to get Americans to go along with something they normally wouldn't go along with.

The nation of immigrants / melting pot meme is a good one.

I still believe in the melting pot idea. The important aspect of that metaphor is the melting part. People can't immigrate whole-cloth and bring their culture with them. People come here, are broken down back into individuals, melting away the shackles of their culture, and then the person - not the trappings of their history, is integrated into America.
I like that idea. And I prefer 'Mutts' to 'Purebreds'. I'm not in panic about 'them' taking 'our' women, because I am going to choose and mate with who I want. [Within reason, Natalie Portman is taken and she's starting to get a little obnoxious anyway]
I don't understand why people don't realize that although racial and cultural hegemony leads to greater peace, it still leads to stagnation and extinction without infusions of new genetic code and ideas.

"These are not our values", meanwhile our values are never defined other than "diversity", "tolerance", and nothing else.
I remember that BBC video that basically said Britain's values were simply "diversity" and "tolerance". If that's the case, then what on earth makes it Britain?
