Summary

This quote suggests that immigrants often embody the core values and American spirit more strongly than those who are native-born citizens. It implies that immigrants, by leaving their home countries and choosing to embrace a new nation, consciously make a commitment to adapt and contribute to their new society. This commitment and determination can lead immigrants to have a deeper appreciation for the opportunities and ideals that America represents, fostering a stronger sense of allegiance and "being American" than some who were born and raised there.
