Even though Native American Indians were here FIRST, are they seen as IMMIGRANTS compared to White Americans in America? Does anyone question their nationality?

Good question, some of the Native Americans I know feel their lands are OCCUPIED by INVADERS. Many bear bumper stickers on their cars that read "America, love it, or give it BACK!" and "T"-shirts that "We've been fighting terrorist for 300 years" that has a picture of Cochise, Sitting Bull, and other warriors.

They are not seen as immigrants-who told you that???
The very nature of their title "NATIVE AMERICANS" shows with both words they are viewed as being here first.
Sheesh......

if any group here in the U.S.A., Canada and Mexico who should be considered " foreigners " it should be all those who immigrated here from other countries in the first place.

They might be native to the land, but they aren't native to the country. White Americans are the ones that came here and built the country. =)
