Should Immigrants Be Assimilated into American Political Culture? One of the greatest strengths of the United States historically has been its ability to absorb and assimilate, or integrate into the social body, the diverse people who enter its borders. Indeed, the United States has long been described as a ?melting pot? that collectively embraces immigrants and blends them into the one shared American culture based on the principles of equality, individual rights, and government by consent.
