Second, while the white propertied class running things would have worked pretty well, as things got industrialized you had plenty of "mechanics" as they termed them in the 18th Century. Cities full of tradesmen and merchants without land per se, but wealth. These people then acquired political power.
Third, even with tradesmen having the vote, a kind of WASP nation would have worked too, but there was the importation of masses of Catholics who were later given, or took political power. Still, they were white and respected the established order and did not try to make a Spain or pre-revolution France out of the place where the Catholic Church was given all sorts of powers, mostly in education.

Civil Rights Act of 64, and then the Immigration Act of 65. Those work hand in hand.
