Essay "Ugly, the American" p.154
Central Claim:
"That while borders need to be protected, new blood is what makes this country the maddening, fantastic free-for-all that it is." p.155
My Central Claim:
I dont think I really stated a central claim.
My Revised Claim:
"This argument forces the reader to see that maybe the stereotypical view of 'send them back across the border' isnt always right"
My Conclusion:
"As cliche as it sounds, our culture really is a melting pot of civilization and without people like the illegal immigrants to alter our demographics, we would never be that fluctuating mass of people that has made us so unique in the first place."

You did a very good job of writing about the TRACE elements of the article. The first thing I would do when revising your first draft (which is very well written) is to state a central claim of your own. It is hard to prove an argument without one.
