Um, about 40% of Americans, at least, because they don’t think there’s a big enough pie to share. Plus, many of us were conditioned, either overtly or subliminally, to believe we white people were superior. The history and mindset of this country is embodied in manifest destiny, that it was our right, as blessed by God, to take this land and rule it. And as people look around and see all that we have accomplished in this country (and “we” is in the eye of the beholder), it can seem to many that this notion was correct.

That’s how I would answer your concluding question.
