I'm sure that's the same thing the US citizens said of your forbearers when they arrived here. It happens to every arriving wave.
I was wondering if that applied here in Plymouth MA when the first immigrants arrived. Then again, those that were already established weren't US citizens.
But other than that...
We have some other cases from the Colonial era that don't require evaluation by Native Americans. For example, the Pennsylvania English thoroughly disliked the Pennsylvania Dutch (well, Deutsch actually). They didn't even consider them "white". Ask Ben Franklin.
