Of course not! Most of America is white people, but we don't say that there are too many whites, do we? America is the great melting pot, and there has to be many nationalities to make up the recipe!
Yes, people from all over the world still imigrate to the U.S. every day. There is still a wide variety of cultures all over the nation, which makes it just as much of a "melting pot" as it was way back.

America is called the melting pot because there are people from everywhere around the world, they have different cultures, different customs, but when they come to America, they are one, one nation. Much depends on how one defines "melting pot". If determined by the fact that the USA has had such a large influx of immigrants, who by and large are here for a number of reasons. For the most part in the past and now, the "culture" of America is not easy to define. With that said, it's clear that various racial & ethnic groups all share many things in common. They attend the US public school systems, attend the numerous colleges and universities, are high tech users whether via cell & smart phones to drinking Coca-Cola. Watch Hollywood productions, receive most of their news from the standard sources, such a TV, Internet, & radio. They are in fact immersed in American culture which is always in a state of flux. Thus, in line with common belief, by any reasonable measure of sharing the American culture, there is a major amount of commonality among the people who have made the USA their home. Whether one wishes to use "melting pot" or some other description, people who live in the United States participate in numerous ways that produce a "commonality". No one "melts" and no one lives in a salad bowel or a mosaic.
A melting pot is where several ingredients are taken and melted into one unified ingredient. This has never truly been an accurate depiction of the people in the United States which is why the salad bowl analogy has gained more popularity of late. We are a country of immigrants who are loathe to abandon the cultures they came to this country with. Thus, we have African Americans, Irish Americans, German Americans, Italian Americans, French Americans, Armenian Americans, Japanese and Chinese Americans to name just a few. Like a salad which serves as a unified dish, the ingredients in a salad are obvious and stand on there own as various ingredients, i.e., tomatoes, broccoli, celery, bacon bits and dressing. This is a far more accurate depiction of how people in the United States view themselves.
