So now a lot of them stay, and have become part of the undocumented immigrant population in the U.S.



That's the low end of the estimate; other estimates put the population at more than 100 million, pre-Columbian and pre-disease epidemics.
Immigration is a legal issue, nothing more.
I am all for legal immigration, good for them, I'm happy they are here.
I don't care where someone is from, there is only one human race regardless how much melanin they may, or may not, have... as long as they do not break the law.
