Two answers:
(1) First of all, it's not at all clear that any of the Indian groups WERE the first immigrants. More and more evidence of ancient Caucasian inhabitants in the Americas is being discovered. It seems increasingly likely that proto-Indians swamped Caucasian predecessors in much the same way that Asiatics swamped the Ainu of Japan.
(2) In any case, my argument is not based on historical rights, but on the needs of my people right now. Rights belong to those who are capable of enforcing them, everything else is just talk. Life is not aimed at moral "fairness" but eternal biological struggle, which rewards those who are willing to do what is necessary to preserve their kind.
