It is a proven fact that if you are a minority or and ILLEGAL INVADER (some call them immigrants) that you get a much better shot at anything the government has to offer than a white American Citizen.

If you're a minority (or any other person) that has the determination to get an education and work hard it truly is a land of opportunity.

Yes!
Land of opportunity for the minority to finance minorities in other countries..........forgetting the junk and inhuman conditions in which their own minorities are living in America!
Go to the downtown area of any town or city to see for yourself!

America is definitely the land of opportunity for everyone. So what's the deal with the minority part? You obviously think this country "owes" you something, NOT, it's what you make of it! There are no free handouts!

America was the land of opportunity. Today, not so much, regardless of your demographic. There just isn't the kind of vibrant, real, economic growth today as spawned opportunity in the past. Of course, there's /always/ opportunity, it's just, today, most of those opportunities are predatory - and you can find those sorts of opportunities anyware.

I suppose it's all relative. There is more opportunity here than there is in Mexico or Afghanistan, but there are still tremendous obstacles here for minorities compared to white people. The few government programs designed to help minorities are small and don't accomplish much, and they don't begin to overcome the prejudice minorities deal with every day.

No.
America is the land of opportunity if you know how to take advantage of the opportunity. Minority status has nothing to do with it.

America is the land of opportunity for all, even for illiterates.

For all, but being a minority might give you a few extra perks.
