No one said it wasn't highly imperfect, but do you disagree that our melting pot was a critical factor in making us the great country we are?[/quote]

You are living in a fools paradise if you think the proponents of diversity support the concept of a meeting pot. They actually oppose it vehemently. They want everybody to be distinct and not assimilate. This is why as diversity had increased on campus, we are seeing all these fights on free speech. The new students DON'T WANT TO MELT. They want the culture to change to accommodate them. And that has resulted in pitched battles everywhere on college campuses.

And the melting pot theory only worked because most of the folks coming into this country were kind of homogenous. If you start importing folks with very different cultures and beliefs into this country as immigrants, you will have chaos. Most of the world does not believe in freedom of speech, religion, equal rights for women, gays, atheists etc. These are uniquely American values and to some extent Western European values. If you don't screen people who come to this country to make sure that they don't import their tribal beliefs into this country and like a fool just keep chanting "Diversity is good", you will wake up one day in a very different America where these values are no longer universal. They may not even be the law of the land. [/quote]

Honestly, you should not have bothered typing all that stuff.  Everyone, including yourself, knows it is untrue and what your real motivation is.

All that stuff you say about the current immigrants was said about all the ones that preceded them.  including both my Italian and Irish great-grandparents.

People want to come here because they want to be American, not because they want to change America.  And having a racial balance at top colleges that reflects American society is one of the best ways I can think of to promote assimilation.  Maybe THE best.  You know it is true.[/quote]

Just because you keep repeating everybody knows it's true doesn't make anything true. You are an idiot if you don't know that don't cultures don't assimilate well because they don't believe it endorse American values. Your idiotic lleftist brain just refused to see the obvious chaos that had occurred in many many countries that import people from cultures that are totally different[/quote]
