Why do Mexican immigrants assimilate slower than other immigrants?

Mostly, because they are proud of being Mexican and they have a long history backing their beliefs; also, the language barrier (most of them speak Spanish), religion (Roman Catholicism) and culture (Latin or Hispanic) hinders most efforts of being assimilated into the American culture.

Besides, what kind of assimilation are you talking about? speaking English and being Protestant? Listening to Britney Spears and watching Days of Our Lives? America has always been proud of being the melting pot of many cultures and ideologies. That Mexicans are the latest of such mix doesn't mean that they don't want to be assimilated, they are just the "new kids in town".
