I doubt they do. And even more doubt they care about “nativeness”. Why would they? I think their way of thinking is much more straightforward: “white people are the locomotive of progress in modern history. We are white, so we are a part of this process. Other races can solve their problems by themselves elsewhere.”
Unfortunately I didn’t pull this out of thin air. It’s their rhetoric and it matters to them because it justifies kicking everyone else out. If being white means you’re native, then everyone else is invading your land. If being white is part of being truly American, then people of color are not truly American.
