Unity or Death

Once, being an American meant something grand. Once, being an American meant being a part of something bigger than yourself, being a part of a greater unit, a country that was rich and bountiful. Any who added their blood and sweat to this soil was considered American because he was here, investing his life in America. He wanted to be an American. This has changed.

"Diversity!" has been the rallying cry of America - or so the liberals think. Diversity, they say, will bring us together.

Diversity is tearing us down.

Everywhere, there are 'diversity fairs' and 'cultural awareness' programs. It saturates our schools, permeates the minds of our students, infuses our culture, and, most of all, divides our hearts.

No longer do we look at black people and call them, "American", but "African American", even if the individual has never seen Africa or has no ties whatsoever to Africa. What is wrong with being just an American?

Recognizing that their are different ethinic groups is perfectly all right. It's good, necessary, to realize that we all have different talents, abilities, backgrounds, styles. That's exactly what makes people individuals, not human #8379038.

And of course, it is perfectly all right to carry on traditions from the "old counrty". Traditions are so valuable. Remember your roots, but also establish new roots in America. Be American first, then you can remember what you were. In the name of Diversity, Americans are opening the doors to illegal aliens.

America is taking a good thing, Diversity, and warping it so that it tears apart our nation. So that it causes us to categorize people into different ethnic groups.

As our founding fathers said, United we stand, Divided we fall.
