American Pot
Will Americans ever truly embrace the American Melting pot ideal?
So much of what I have seen posted here in Yahoo Answers is racially charged. America adopted the principal that this is the great American melting pot. When does the melting begin? Why are so many people hung up on pointing out differences that only amount to stereotyping? All people are different. Thank God. Yes, America has its problems, many of which are the result of America's history with non-Europeans. Will we ever move forward and embrace the idea that we are all Americans? We live in the greatest country on earth. People around the world are dying to get here. Too many of us, whom have experienced nothing but the freedoms we enjoy as Americans, spend too much time tearing our fellow Americans down based on ingorance and stupidity. Wake up American's. We are all extremely blessed and should act accordingly. Our Troops, past and present, reflect our diversity and have died for our rights They managed to work together why can't we here at home?
Fact from fiction, truth from diction. A total 100% acceptance of the "melting pot" will never ever happen. You would have a better chance of seeing Osama Bin Laden and George bush in a spirited chess match at Starbucks at high noon while sipping choco mocha lattes. One of the reason is you can never get Jim Crow from the building. You can get him to the lobby and then someone like the Gaede twins invite him back in. Second, no one wants to even admit there is a problem. If you point it out, you are called the racist. It is like going to a BBQ and seeing one of the guest slumped in a chaise lounge, a Glock 9mm loosely dangling in his hand, his eyes rolled back, and half his skull and brains decorating the glass slider. It is not rocket science to figure out what happened but everyone want to say "shhhh....he is resting, you might wake him" because they don't want to believe or admit someone committed suicide at THEIR party. If you are not willing to admit it is broken and just keep limping along using it, it never gets fixed. People are dying to get here from around the globe simply for the money, not because here is more fair than where they came from.
