Merriam-Webster defines *Immigrant* as someone who comes to another country to
set up residency. Massachusetts was not a country or state at the time of the
first Thanksgiving. At some point it became a recognized colony of the crown.
There was no immigration. No permission to enter into the area around Plymouth
Rock and settle was needed. No laws were violated. There was no government.
Perhaps from an indigenous point of view, there should have been! Look at what
they lost, EVERYTHING!< As for the Immigrant's Day thing, it wasn't a rumor.
They admit to it. Someone on that conference call, by invitation only and 99
chances out of a hundred were or was, an Obama supporter, made the suggestion,
preposterous as it was. Anne, are you an Obama supporter? You didn't think it
Preposterous. Did you?

But them the Pilgrims were not celebrating immigration on their first

But the Pilgrims were immigrants and apparently helped and welcomed by the
indigenous peoples at the time who aided them in all sorts of ways and so 90
Natives and 53 Pilgrims spent 3 days celebrating the first harvest. Sounds like
these immigrants were treated better than some other countries as treating the
Syrians and why not call "Thanksgiving" "Immigrants Day"? I think, although
it's a bogus rumor, that would be very apropos! LOL

Not sure about the truth of this but I read somewhere that the Presidents
supporters are trying to get him to change Thanksgiving to Immigrants day.
Well that's perfect then considering all the pilgrims were immigrants. I like
it!

Neither golf day or fund raise day!
The FOURTH of JULY is ONE, & our 1st & for some time the only national
holiday

I think the observances that are appropriate are Memorial Day and Veterans Day.
Don't think D Day is a National Holiday
