This is a article about how the first "American" winner of the NY marathon is not considered "American" enough because he is am immigrant who moved here when he was 12. Sadly, the article lays out other examples of white athletes who no one ever questioned they were American eventhough they too were immigrants.
We all came here as immigrants (except the Indians who we have treated with disdain and hatred until of late) of some form, too bad the melting pot seems to be an outmoded part of the American Dream.
Congratulations Meb! We are proud of you, wherever you are from.
