   WASPS are already a minority. The trend started with German and Irish immigrants 150 years ago.

   There are very few WASPs in the US. Most Caucasian Americans trace their roots to European tribes other than the Anglo-Saxons. As for the US identity, looking at who we elect President is usually a good clue. I don’t think the current guy is W or AS, but he is P. The top GOP contenders who want to run against him next year are 1. Mormon and of Welsh ancestry, 2. Catholic and of German ancestry and 3. African-American. So we’re all over the map in terms of religion and ethnic origin.

   The same, United states as always been a “melting pot” of different ethnics. That was the beginning of this will be the end.

   Nothing stands still. People complained about Jewish immigrants back in the day and now are mainstream. Stop stressing!!!
