I don't have an original link for this, but according to "The menace of multiculturalism":
A poll for the Pew Hispanic Center finds that 55 percent of Americans of Mexican descent consider themselves Mexicans first. A similar study of Muslim immigrants in Los Angeles finds that only 10 percent think of themselves as Americans rather than citizens of the countries they abandoned for new lives here.

I found this Pew study from 2002:
* When asked whether they ever use certain terms to describe themselves, a large majority of Latinos (88%) indicate that they ever identify themselves by the country where they or their parents or ancestors were born, for example as a "Mexican" or "Cuban." They are almost as likely (81%) to ever use "Latino or Hispanic." By contrast, they are much less likely to ever use the term "American" (53%).
*When asked which terms they would use first to describe themselves, a little more than half (54%) indicate that they primarily identify themselves in terms of their or their parents' country of origin; about one in four (24%) chooses "Latino" or "Hispanic," and about one in five (21%) chooses "American."

the hostile claims of the Mexican government on our territory do not, apparently, cause most Mexicans here to take the American side. This means we have a large population of at least questionable loyalty, and the government pretends that they're not betraying the nation by waving large numbers additional, of this very same sort.
