What exactly IS the overall culture of the United States?The day you show me a nationalist who welcomes Hispanics and Muslims, I'll believe that.You beat me to the punch.
I was planning on creating this exact thread...eventually.
Now lets see how many of them actually have the balls to ADMIT it.
Most real white nationalist/white power types freely admit to being so.
Your issue is you try to call anyone to the Right of Mitt Romney a white nationalist.
and then assume that any form of nationalism has to have a racist component to it.
I am a nationalist.
I believe in the US as a concept and as a country.
I have zero issue with legal immigrants, regardless of race.
What I want immigrants to do is to be able to assimilate to our country. that doesn't mean giving up one's culture, but it does mean subordinating it to the overall culture of the United States.
That as a base means acceptance of Religious and Political liberty, acceptance of the separation of powers in the government, acceptance of federalism, and acceptance of the identity as an American.
It's pretty broad. but it used to consist of adherence to our way of government, and acceptance of the rights of others enshrined in the Bill of Rights.
Pretty good answer. That's why a political party based on identity politics struggles with the question. They see our Constitution and the Bill of Rights as an antiquated document and an obstacle.
