Schwarzenegger says proximity to homeland increases temptation not to assimilate; Democrats outraged
“Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger, known for stirring the ethnic melting pot with his off-the-cuff remarks, gave his Democratic opponents more ammunition Thursday when he declared that Mexican immigrants have difficulty assimilating in the United States because they’re so close to their home country.
“They try to stay Mexican but try to be in America, so there’s this back and forth,” Schwarzenegger said, surrounded by Asian-Americans at a Moon Festival celebration in Los Angeles. “What I say to Mexicans is you have got to go immerse yourself and assimilate into American culture and become part of the American fabric. That’s how America will embrace you.”
