The Constitution of the United States was ratified in 1788, and our first president took office in 1789. This signifies that any Acts so legislated and subsequently ratified came forth from our legislative representatives, and therefore to blame King George III for "…obstructing the Laws for Naturalization of Foreigners" was thus superseded by that Act of 1790, which stated as part of this Act that only those aliens who were a "free white person" were permitted to be admitted to becoming a citizen, as long as they had satisfied the court that they were of good character and had resided here in the States for at least two years. In other words, immigrants to the United States had to be white and essentially property owners to have the opportunity to become naturalized citizens, and all others were not eligible for that citizenship.
This would thus signify that all those who claim that America, upon its founding, was a "white man's country" were absolutely right, because all those of different races were not even permitted to become naturalized citizens through this Act, for they were restricted from this very thing by the wording of this Naturalization Act. This then is the way that it was, and only very slowly over time was this Act to become modified to accommodate those of other races, in which, the history of America clearly shows that non-white immigrants were treated differently and thus were not equal or even close to being equal to white persons, which is why the Supreme Court decision regarding those of the black race, signified that the black man had "no rights which the white man was bound to respect," was pretty much par for the course, and a clear reflection that not all were equal under the law, and therefore that the white man was the alpha male of this Constitutional republic, which even in this present age, fundamentally remains the case.
Indeed, to believe that privileges bestowed upon the white man, by virtue of simply being white, does not truly reflect that this nation historically has not been fair to those of other races and creeds and correspondingly unduly favored the white man, is not to know the true history of these United States. While there is nothing that can be done to change the past, there is plenty that can be done to change the present and the future, to thereby provide some form of restitution justice so due to those that have been historically mistreated, so as to make good on balancing the scales of justice, by providing those previously treated as "less than" with the fair opportunity along with the assistance of a governmental helping hand to thereby give them equality under the law.
Those then that decry "reverse discrimination" are missing the point, for the point is that those that were denied what rightfully should have been theirs under our founding documents are fairly entitled to receive now and forevermore that which represents a nation founded upon the principles of unalienable rights as our equal birthright, and a rule of law properly applied to all, and thereby no respecter of persons.
