A Russian arrives in *New York City **as a new immigrant to the United
States . He stops the first person he sees walking down the street and
says, "Thank you Mr. American for letting me come into this country,
giving me housing, food stamps, free medical care, and a free education!"
The passerby says, "You are mistaken, I am a Mexican."
The man goes on and encounters another passerby. "Thank you for having
such a beautiful country here in America **."
The person says, "I not American, I Vietnamese."
The new arrival walks farther, and the next person he sees he stops,
shakes his hand, and says, "Thank you for wonderful *America !
That person puts up his hand and says, "I am from *Middle East . *I am
not American."
He finally sees a nice lady and asks, "Are you an American?"
She says, "No, I am from *Africa ."
Puzzled, he asks her, "Where are all the Americans?"
The African lady checks her watch and says, "Probably at work."
