This is only a partial responce to your question and partly a responce to the idiots who ansewred before me.\n\nA true American is a person born under the legal qualifications of citizenship as determined by the U.S. Constitution.  It says if you are born to a U.S. Citizen or on U.S. soil, you are a natural citizen.  If you studied hard and folloewd the imigration laws and rules, you can be naturalized and be a citized too.\n\nA "Native American" is any person born on U.S. soil to U.S. citizen parents.\n\nAn modern American Indian is a decendant of those Asians who migrated across the Bering Straight land bridge.\n\nAll settlers who came here before there was a country came here legally because, according to the American Indian Tribes, "No man owned the land".\n\nIf somebody were to break into your house and demand you feed them, you'd kick them out.  That's what Illegal immigrants did.\n\nIf you wait in line at the bank for 30 minutes and some guy comes in and cuts infront of your, you'd send him to the end of the line.  That's what Illegal Immigrants did to the Legal immigrants.\n\nThis country may need immigrants, since out current birthrate is too low to support our needs, but why not let the Legal immigrant who has been waiting for 10 years to get the job?  This is not a racial thing.\n\nAnybody who takes off work or school to march on May 1st doesn't need their job or their education (or doesn't want it) and their dismissal from work or suspension from school is appropriate.\n\nIf all the Mexicans who are here illegally (over 10 million) were to march on Mexico City demanding to have better jobs, economy, and living conditions, Presidente Fox would run for his life.\n\nRemember, Mexico requires Identification to get jobs and shoots anybody sneeking in their country illegally.
