Content: Dropping birth rates in Latin America, growing economies, stable governments and reasonably free nations ensure that the driving force of immigration to the USA will wane over the next decade, to be replaced with Asian and likely West African (Nigerian, esp.) immigrants to the US. It's always "the recent ones" that seem to be heavily noted. They are "new" and new looks obvious and odd (to chose a un-delicate term). Germans have ceased their massive influx for a bit over a century now, so they are no longer any different than the Irish or British immigrants before them. They just are a footnote in history, lots of last names and some cultural nuances that we now assume are "normal". The Indians and Hispanics are the new guys, so it's easier to take note of them and their changes to the American landscape. But rest assured, back when the Germans were "the new guys", people hated them. There were comics that depicted them as disease ridden, anarchists, Huns and criminals. Invading hordes and pointy-helmeted anti-Americans.
