the usage of indentured servants, and the fact that natives knew the land and would escape easily
I think it would be more accurate to say that the American dream has proven to have some unintended consequences.
I would say, the first natives to be the Anasazi, and the first whites to be.. The spanish. I am a native american, I should know :)
There were numerous treaties signed by numerous Native American tribes that guaranteed peace from both sides if the Native Americans would limit their movements and living to a particular area of their traditional lands. Unfortunately, many of the treaties went unratified by the American government. The Natives would often think that they were guaranteed their lands by a treaty with the government only to later find out that the treaty was never ratified and that they would be relocated to a reservation or even exterminated (no longer recognized by the government.) This was especially common among more western tribes.
Well they allied with the British because the British promised to give the Natives land in return. In a sense, the British persuaded/bribed the Natives into being allies with them.
A nativist would define a "real" American as a native-born, white citizen from America.

i would think it is Africa because that is where humans originated :)
Why would the American natives attack the Pilgrims?? Most tribes were friendly toward others.
The natives would lose their land.
The Native American's of the west coast were considered sedentary. When the settlers began taking over their land, the natives moved and became somewhat nomadic.
natives would trap animals by setting snares...
Natives strongly supported the British side. Natives saw the American Revolution as their last chance to win back North America. When the British government showed up they gave natives weapons so they would attack the colonist. Natives who were on the losing side suffered greatly after the Revolution. The U.S. government took land in a rapid pace after the revolution.

Natives opposed immigration because they believed immigrants would take their places in regards to employment. Natives also lacked trust and were therefore insecure.
Well he is American, so I think he would. =].
The American Natives did not scare the Spanish. In fact, Colombus used the hospitality of the Taíno Indians on Hispaniola as a bargaining point for why the Spaniards should colonize them. (They'll offer no resistance to the Spanish Crown.) There were certainly more hostile tribes such as the Mapuche who continually resisted Spanish occupation, but the Spaniards colonized to acquire more raw materials, convert souls to Christianity, and attain glory. It was not retribution for anything that the American Natives did.
