And nothing showcases your vast intelligence like an ad hominem attack.
Well done.
Whoa! All of that, and no remarks about the point I made???
Let me see now, let me see who's making the ad hominem attack.
Oh, could it be poor lil' ol' me?:(

Against stupidity, the gods themselves contend in vain.
In a similar vein of course, we must admit that there is no such thing as an American culture. The White House and all other symbols of American might were byproducts of British imperialism.
The colonists were a mixture of Scots, Hibernians and Dutch, with a smattering of Britishers and French near the Atlantic coast.
To repeat: The term "American culture" is a misnomer. It doesn't exist. Sorry folks, nothing to see here.
Dude, besides getting your facts right, you also need to get a brain. It helps, sometimes. The gap between the Mughal invasion and the construction of the Taj Mahal was nearly a hundred years. If the American nation could be forged out of the disparate strands mentioned above in that same amount of time, the assimilation of the Mughals into a syncretic subcontinental Islamic culture would have taken much less time.
