Am I the only one here who is disturbed by those numbers? I honestly fear for the future of this nation if we dont increase the native born population. Look at how Europe is dying because the natives are not having enough babies as compared to the Muslim immigrants having like 10 kids each.

I wonder how many of those "native-born White non-Hispanics" were 1st or 2nd generations down from immigrant parents. I would guess that a bunch of them had Jewish, Irish, Italian, etc parents or grandparents. Without immigration, America is nothing. Among my great grandparents were a Norwegian and a Scot. Without immigration I wouldn't be here. Of course, without slavery, I wouldn't be here either, so I guess that argument has some flaws.
