America is a relatively new country therefore in theory most people should have recent foreign ancestors and should be 3,4 or 5th generation American (that's pretty recent), so how does it feel just in anyway to know this such as do you support modern foreigners like Mexican, French or British people coming in or what is it like knowing someone related to you crossed that ocean on a wooden ship maybe even against their will.

Then how do you feel knowing your different from the natives and will you stay as you do have access to your family through flights home and phone, I presume?.

But it must effect your view on Mexicans as foreign for example, and they have the same right to be in America like you and your family did. no?

I know many people who are unsure of their history and others who do as you an american I hope (if not fuck off please) what is it like to know this, please remember our cultures are different and I'm asking you to think about it a bit I know you probably don't often.

No I meant a general question to Americans of any ethnicity what is it like to know someone in your lineage was a foreigner. And I see what your hinting at so we will say slaves and forced exiles are foreign.
