Native Americans: A native of America; originally applied to the aboriginal inhabitants but now applied to the descendants of Europeans born in America and especially to the citizens of the U.S. They are foreigners. The 15th century definition of native is person of servitude which applies to them even today. Present interpretation of native is a person born here but originates elsewhere. Both definitions apply to those on the reservations. These folks are descendants of Europeans and Asians, not from thousands of years ago but fairly recent. They are foreigners even if it was shown they arrived here 10,000 years ago. They could never be nothing more than an immigrant i.e native.. not divinely entitled to anything here.
