Well, if we really want to get anal, I guess the Asians were truely the first ones to set foot in America. But I don't doubt that someone else came before Columbus (Lief Erickson came around 1000 CE I believe.) Usually, White guys get the credit for everything, so if a non-white guy happened to land here first, I bet he got erased from the history books. Also, Columbus never landed in America. The Americas yes, but not what is now the USA. Because he was a moron and thought he was in India. God I hate Columbus.
