America was built almost entirely by European migrants. (Jews, if counted separately, would be second. A small number of East Asians would be third.) America's success is the result of their intelligence, education, creativity, and orientation to science and free market capitalism.

Yes, a small minority had African slaves - which hurt the vast majority of other Europeans, whose employment opportunities and wages were lower because of slavery.
