Whites did build this country. Weren't the people who were responsible for building America white? If you think not, then what were they? If you think "white" is something that refers to modern day white Americans only you're wrong. Whites came from Europe where ALL ancestors of the white race came from. Weren't the colonials that came here European white people? So again, if it wasn't white people who built this country, who did?

Here's what Buchanan said, in reference to why affirmative action was a bad program.
“Well, I think white men were 100 percent of the people that wrote the Constitution, 100 percent of the people that signed the Declaration of Independence, 100 percent of people who died at Gettysburg and Vicksburg. Probably close to 100 percent of the people who died at Normandy…This has been a country built basically by white folks in this country who are 90 percent of the entire nation-in 1960, when I was growing up, Rachel-and the other 10 percent were African-American who had been discriminated against. That's why."
And what Maddow pointed out in response are the many significant contributions and sacrifices made by people who were not white in the building of this country.
