up and live there? That would be a ton of areas and you know how Americans are when they "get going".

Wow you all have some interesting answers. I just figured if we leave then we can have the rest of the world, but I think America is too beautiful and Americans made it so it will stand and those ideas of kicking out the bad guy and taking care of their countries instead of running off are right on target. Yes if someone never had it before, you would think they would be more creful to take care of it.

White, superior, Christian that is really a racist frame of mind. This country has about 60,000,000 illegals from all over the world and kids, American kids go to bed hungry. Read Outrage by Dick Morris and see the numbers. I do not accept your logic, the "evil white man". Hate is a terrible, terrible way of life. This country is diversified. Every minority has bled for this country. Don't forget the drugs. I blame the elected officials more than anyone. As far as drugs, you got a big hang up with England, we haven't forced dope on anyone and the slave stuff, didn't that start with the Dutch on a little island off the west coast of Africa n the 1400s. Seems you either have a problem being a white, Christian or with England, are you of the French? You should be upset that the British kept the Jews from returning and they had to stay in Nazi Germany or what is your problem. Some of these kids may buy it, but I no the score and this country is being over run.

When I think about the millions murdered in Russia, China and al over the world. America is the best of the best and we have bled to be that way not only abroad, but right here. So sir, please tell your history lesson to people who know no better, I for one understand the world and knows it's dark history. You need to forgive and i will say a prayer for you. With tha said I will move on as you probably have never seen the types of questions I pose and for the most part all Americans enjoy them. I may just put your answer up as the 'best answer', not that I think it is, but to prove a point. There are better ones here. Just read, as a matter of fact there are some "gems". But if you give a history lesson give the entire lesson, not your part. That's one of the things wrong with our school system now and if you think America was built with just the white, English speaking people, guess again. Check. Take care.

Possible you hae a problem withthe Church of Europe. Did you know that during the 30 Years War two thirds of all people in Germany and Austria were killed. Your folks may have gone to Canada via France if so then you know all about the way the Prot Christians were killed in France.
We have brought in over 30 million legal immigrats in the last 16 years or 10% of the population and we do not need to overload the country.. The other 40-60 million that are here illegally need not be here. Crime, drugs and overoading the country is not my idea of the best situation for Americans. Granted only 27% of illegals fill our Federal prisons and another 300,000 are in state jails, but does America need that. You should read "How Satan turned America against God" by William Grady about 1,000 pages with 2,000 endnotes and the Outrage book deals with American stuff and our elected officials.
It's funny that you judge me, you dont know me.

In closing the country needs to clean up as the crime is hitting all, but mainly the areas where Americans are that the criminals can blend in. Is it fair for a friend of mine t have to work for fives years and jump over mountains t obecome an American the legal way and bring his family and then let someone else in, in a New York second? No. Please don't throw out junk for any kids that might see it . You can pick and choose about history, but in the Bible we are told to "Plow ahead", are we not? My e-mail is always open. I've heard that's a beautiful place, too bad we had a communist in the state department at the end of WWII, if not China mainland might be a democracy. Take care.

Pagon seems you have a bone to pick with England and America. We fought what was known as our Civil War, read up on it. Also you state they if not for Enland controlling the oceans America would have been forcing countries to buy opium. Once again you history proves you wrong. Check your history but America went to Japan and basically forced them to sign a trade agreement with us and why didn't we force them to buy opium? Why would you state that you imagined such a horrible thing about America and then on the other hand asy you respect us? Get my point, it's like you're talking out of both sides of your mouth. not sure what your beef is, but America is America and are made up of every race whether you like it or not. Maybe you should take down your answer as it shows your hate.

i agree with sparkles, there would be no issue if immigrants came over here legally. my grandmother came over here in the 50's and she got a green card and then she taught herself how to speak english(which she does very well) she only has a minor accent, and then she got her citizenship.. its all about being here legally and taking the time to do it.. it also helps if people would learn to speak english. i dont go over to my grandmothers country and speak english, i try to speak their language, so even if i get words wrong they know im trying.

Sorry, no, I really do'nt want to move to Botswana or Uwranda or the Dominican Republic. America might have its own vested interest at heart primarily, but we do offer many outreach programs to other nations. If 3rd would countries would kick their selfish dictators to the curb and embrace us, I"m sure something could be done faster and better than resisting us.
I've seen the sudo friendly kinda coutnries. Seems they have no problem importing our Kentucky Fried Chicken, or Pepsi, Coke, Marriot Hotels....and we don't build as much as the Brits seem to in the Arabian countries. But when it comes to culture, we are the great white satan. And staying in their own country isn't good enough, the radicals have to make some world wide statement against the USA.... all because we exist...Not that we have actually done evil against them.
At best it would just be a land swap, but they get the already built industrial nation....assuming they have enough intelligent people to run the manufacterer's and industries.
I know we started off as a group of pioneers and ambitious people, but trading lands because other worlds are too under-developed, uneducated or too lazy to do so for themselves ? sounds too radical to me.

During the colonial period of the last few centuries, many people from Britain, France, the Netherlands, Germany, Portugal, and Spain went to other countries as colonists. Some went to make money, others went to "fix it" with the benefit of European-style government and religion and ways of doing things. For the most part, the colonized places did not derive as much benefit from the process as we might have hoped.
You want to do the same thing all over again. You want to show them how it's done, by us superior white, English-speaking Christians. Yes sir. Nobody knows how to run a place the way we do. Why, we could send a bunch of Americans, down to (for example) Haiti, and have the place running like a home-bound clipper in no time.
Clipper? Sorry, bad example. The clippers were ships that took opium from India to China to trade for tea to take back to Britain. The only reason Americans couldn't do it was because the Royal Navy enforced British trade laws and at that time you didn't have the push to stop them. So, you ran slaves instead.
Please take down your question. You're an embarrassment to yourself and to a nation that I respect and admire.

How about no? Our economy is sucking right now from the burden we have had put on us who pay income taxes. It is going to get worse because the dems are trying to get our taxes raised. Lucky us.
Since the first answer wrote: Funny how a coutry founded on immigration has so many hangups about it these days.
Maybe some should read this link. Immigrants did not just walk onto American soil without registering first to be a citizen. The debate is not of immigrants coming here, it is about them coming here legally.

If Ron Paul advocates shooting illegals, then I will not be voting for him, and I am a Republican.

Why should we clean up their slums so they can just go mess it up again? People have much more pride in their homes if they take responsibility for them.
Look at all the low-income housing that has been built. They started out nice and lots of people just trash the place!

they'd just say they wanted it back and it was theirs first. by then the U.S. would a third world country. elementary school doesn't have classes in economics, world leadership, business management, and very little history or geography too. it's not a pretty picture.

thank you Pagan Dan
that is a very dumb idea how could you even think it?not only have blood,sweat,and tears of our people made this country but why give our technology, industries, and businesses to anyone. your talking about just up and walking out and starting over,from scratch.no way,no how.And if your point is that they are coming here and taking over anyway that's just as dumb.when they grow balls and kick out their good for nothing leaders they will have it just as good as us.
