I like that music, too. I wonder, do you feel this whole mess about being "overrun" by a population that "won't" assimilate is a little rediculous? I do. Maybe this is because I remember my grandparents and how they longed for the old country...I remember hearing how much better things were over there...then when I finally went (and I did love it) within two weeks I was ready to come home (and eat a freaking cheeseburger).
I live in an immigrant neighborhood these days ~ even have fellows here who carried rifles against the Russians as children/teenagers in the Afghan war.
Helps me understand some of the Revolutionary War soldiers in the line ~ they were young too ~ 13- 16 ~ young!
They can humble a man ~ as they did Washington at Valley Forge. I have learned a lot about our Founders by listening to current immigrants.
