"In
the first place, we should insist
that if the immigrant who comes here
in good faith becomes an American
and assimilates himself to us, he
shall be treated on an exact equality
with everyone else, for it is an outrage
to discriminate against any such man
because of creed, or birthplace, or
origin. But this is predicated upon
the person's becoming in every facet
an American, and nothing but an American...There
can be no divided allegiance here.
Any man who says he is an American,
but something else also, isn't an
American at all. We have room for
but one flag, the American flag...
We have room for but one language
here, and that is the English language
... and we have room for but one sole
loyalty and that is a loyalty to the
American people."
Theodore
Roosevelt 1907 |
