Multiculturalism

The Super Bowl was a blow out of epic proportions. I felt pretty bad for the Bronco’s really, they were out played from the National Anthem to the Trophy presentation. Congratulations to the Seattle Seahawks and Pete Carroll for a NO DOUBTER win.

After the game, the biggest discussion was around the COKE commercial:

Did you find it offensive? It was designed to help the democrat party in their push to label everyone who doesn’t toe the line as racists and extremists. It worked to some degree.

Multiculturalism is the underlying issue. IF you don’t approve of other cultures you’re racist. This is a fallacy argument.

There’s another part to the Immigration/Multiculturalism debate. Its ASSIMILATION. That has been missing in America for many many years and the results are evident.

Let me give you my view and you can agree or disagree if you wish… Here goes:

Multiculturalism can be GREAT for countries OR it can be the catalyst for a country’s demise. When a country allows immigration of all cultures, without assimilation the power of the country’s policy makers is swayed by the largest numbers of the same immigrants. Think about this: IF the majority of immigrants to America were Japanese, instead of from South America, our politicians would be falling all over themselves to appease Japanese folks rather than Hispanics. The greatest number equals the greatest power.

IF assimilation was truly required and only one language was acceptable/used in public etc, then every immigrant would have to learn English. What we have done is made it possible and acceptable to speak your native language with out hardship. (Spanish for the most part because as I said, the greatest number) Then we allow them to fly their flag, demand we change our culture around theirs etc…

Multiculturalism is now ingrained in America, now its a fight to see which culture wins. If you watch the Coke ad, it shows plenty of cultures and most of them are compatible with American culture. American culture is a mesh of several cultures anyway, BUT… What we did was quit taking the BEST of other cultures and melting them in with ours, now we are taking the WORST of other cultures as well because if you object then you’re RACIST.

The multiculturalism experiment has been going on in Europe for a while now. The English are finding out, France is finding out and America will find out that unfettered immigration without assimilation is a disaster.

Assimilation is the answer to the multiculturalism. IF it were required that you learn english within 2 years of immigration, if we expected and received Americans, our nation would be united, we’d be moving mountains together instead of having a nation divided by the amount of immigrants who hold on to their own nationality above America.

Where we are headed is: America is being pushed into the nation that the greatest number of Immigrants left. We are losing our sovereignty because of political correctness and feel good policies. Our education system is a prime example of where we are headed. Look at California for the greatest example of where multiculturalism without assimilation takes us.

Its much too late to fix it now, it would take real leadership to right the ship. It would take Americans to wake up. It would take the IMMIGRANTS to wake up and say “hey, we left our nation to come to a better place, this place now looks like what we left” It will take Americans to quit being worried about being called Racist for wanting America to be the best nation on earth again.

I’m not optimistic.
