A Somali arrives in Minneapolis 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 in this country, and
giving me housing, food stamps, medical care and free education!" But
the passer-by says "You are mistaken, I am Mexican".
The man goes on and encounters another passer-by. "Thank you for having
such a beautiful country here in America!" The person says "I no
American, I Vietnamese."
The new arrival walks further, and the next person he sees he stops,
shakes his hand and says "Thank you for the wonderful America!" That
person puts up his
hand and says "I am from Middle East, I am not an American!"
He finally sees a nice lady and asks suspiciously, "Are you an
American?" She says, "No, I am from Russia!"
So he is puzzled, and asks her, "Where are all
the Americans?" The Russian lady looks at her watch, shrugs, and
says...
"Probably at work!"
