Actually, immigration from 'around the world' only dates back to 1965 for the US [1]. Before that, it was more or less 'whites only' - preferably not even eastern European whites. And it took many years for the new policy to be felt [2]. So the history of the US as a nation of immigrants from around the world is rather brief, and saying it was made great by this is untrue, unless you're arguing it was 'made great' entirely in the last 40-50 years.
