Here are two examples:
To me a American is anyone that holds the ideal that freedom and Independence is more important than anything else on earth,as a nation we believed this once and it made us very unique but due to lies and constant fighting among ourselves we have tarnished that dream now people come here for opportunity and to better their lives when they should be coming here to inter grate and add to the experience not to just take advantage of it,we had a noble idea I hope someday something will inspire us to seek out liberty and realize we have made mistakes and will make more in the future be still we have not had to build a single wall to keep people in. God Bless America.
To be an American simply means your mother happened to give birth to you in America. It really doesn't mean anything contrary to popular belief. We are not better, smarter, kinder, meaner, more advanced, more civil or any different at all than any other human being born in any part of the world. We are lucky....so far...that we have a society ruled by a government that allows us to be who or what we want to be. We have good people, bad people, smart people, dumb people, and yes, we even have home grown terrorists and religious zealots just like everyone else. It aint so fun to be an American these days. Fear, I fear will take away many of the freedoms we once knew.
PLEASE KEEP IT CIVIL AND SANE. Thanks.
