Where are the Americans....

[Sheldon J]

A Russian arrives in New York City as a new immigrant to the United States. He stops the first person he sees walking down the street and says, "Thank you, Mr. American, for letting me into this country, giving me housing, food stamps, free medical care, and a free education!"

The passerby says, "You are mistaken, I am a Mexican."

The man goes on and encounters another passerby. "Thank you for having such a beautiful country here in America ."

The person says, "I not American, I Vietnamese."

The new arrival walks farther, and the next person he sees he stops, shakes his hand, and says, "Thank you for wonderful America !"

That person puts up his hand and says, "I am from Middle East. I am not American."

He finally sees a nice lady and asks, "Are you an American?" She says, "No, I am from Africa .." Puzzled, he asks her, "Where are all the Americans?"
The African lady checks her watch and says, "Probably at work."

IF YOU DON'T PASS THIS ON TO YOUR FRIENDS, TOMORROW
AT 11:30 AM YOU WILL RECEIVE THREE ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS
ABSOLUTELY FREE.

This works north of the 49th parallel too. Just substitute "Canadian" for "American", and Toronto for New York.

Then the poor Russian immigrant sees a bumper sticker that reads;

Work Harder, Millions on Welfare are Depending on YOU!"

As the sad realization of it all sinks in he thinks to himself this country is becoming just like my Motherland.

My wife particularly liked it when I used different stereotypical accents to tell her the joke.
