Is America a melting pot or a stew?

It ISN’T US... most of the people coming here wouldn’t melt in ANY pot!

Yes...fly the flag, but fly it upside down to show we’re in distress with current leadership and the pointedly political meananderings of the recent decisions but SCOTUS. We, the people, have the final say about our freedoms and way of life, not Obama, not the courts.

The melting pot boiled dry. All that is left is the crust burned onto the bottom. (Second Civil War movie reference).

“America is alive and well “

Uh no its not. Sadly we are in big trouble and the kind of trouble that elections will not solve. We went past the ballot box in 2012. Sure if the election of 2016 is allowed to happen most of us will go vote but with how much enthusiasm? How much hope for any meaningful change?

Great Post!

America is Suppose to be a Melting Pot.

E Pluribus Unum

Out of Many, One.

Out of many peoples and cultures we have One Nation.

For those who seek to divide us, it's hard to divide along those lines if you are a "one of everything"

So, to conquer, the left must first divide, Balkanizing America so they can control the different pieces.

They would have this country burn if they could be Kings of the Ashes.

American Sharia.
Just different religions. One is Islam, the other is Political Correctness.

Once upon a time, before "Melting Pot" became a bad expression, people from all parts of the world came here and contributed part of their culture to the American tapestry.
Food, Art, Music, Ethics, Religion ... good Culture.
Nowadays, immigrants no longer contribute, they take.
They bring the parts of their "culture" that the previous immigrants gladly left behind or escaped from.

Used to be a melting pot.

Events of 9/11 and after have turned up the heat by an order of magnitude. Now it's becoming a crucible, and the contents will either join and create a common alloy or the crucible will crack.

Good post.

[sauropod]

Nowadays it’s more like a muffin cooking sheet.

Each one into his own compartment....

[peteyd]

As some radio personality says,it has become a chamber pot.

[kjam22]

Neither..... its more like a fruitcake.

[Joe Brower]

"Melting pot"? Yes, in some places. That was the ideal.

Fast forward to present day, and our political elites have largely devolved this concept to what can now only be called a "dumping ground".

[AEMILIUS PAULUS]

America is becoming a Third World sewer.

[The Sons of Liberty]

It USED to be a melting pot. Immigrants came here legally, eager to work and contribute, learned English and tried to assimilate. Then came LBJ and his so-called "Great Society" where certain ethnic groups were deemed 'a little more equal' because they needed 'a little more help'. Soon, politicians began to find that they could garner votes and money by pandering to ethnic groups. It was politically correct and fashionable to become a hyphenated-American instead of just a good old fashioned AMERICAN.

Now the minority dictates to the majority and expects and enjoys special privileges. We have no borders because the more foreign trash that enters, the more dem voters. Our culture and society is on life support because political correctness makes White Americans outcasts in their own Country.
