Immigrants from all over this country is what makes America the great nation that it is. Most African-Americans today can trace their ancestry to somewhere in Africa, who were sold into slavery from 1619.
We all can trace our lineage somewhere in the world going back 2 to 3 generations. Both my Grandfathers were foreign born(Mexico and Yugoslavia). My Maternal Great-Grandparents were from Florence in Italy. My late husband's paternal Grandparents from Sicily and Maternal from England, Wales, and Germany. All came to this country to forge a better life.
Perhaps Mr. Haley needs a better History lesson if he is capable of understanding why Immigrants choose to come here rather than stay in their own native countries.
