You can't be serious?
May I ask what country you were born to and which you are a citizen of?
So you can't explain what the principles are that define america, so you change the subject.
How is asking you about your national origins changing the subject? The assumption is that you're a US citizen... I've come to find that this is often a bad assumption and that those who present this level of ignorance are Europeans... posing as US Citizens.
It is inexcusable for a natural born US Citizen to not KNOW the principles that define the concept on which the nation rests... while someone from another nation posing as a US Citizen would readily be expected to not understand what they're talking about. Foreign Ideas Hostile to American Principle, being what they are an all.
So... scamp... where ya from and I'm adding to that, how old are you?
I was born in the USA before WW2 ended, served in the US Navy during the Vietnam war, and I'm waiting for you to explain your belief in what the principles of america are that I should adhere to, and where it's written that I should adhere to them even though you can't explain to me what they are. I'm usually not rude on these forums, but you're basically a mostly incoherent jack ass, just repeating words you heard somewhere.
That is total nonsense.
There is no way that anyone born in the United States BEFORE WW2 would not KNOW of the Charter of American Principles... what is within that charter, the principles themselves and the essential role they play in sustaining the nation.
I was born in 1960 and this was drilled into us from Kindergarten through High School.
But I guess there's no point in beating your dead horse...
I present you the Charter of American Principle, declared as the foundational principles on which the authority to form such was recognized... .
See if any of it looks familiar to ya:
"When in the Course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another, and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature’s God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation.
We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal; that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights; that among these are Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of Happiness; that, to secure these rights, governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed; that whenever any form of government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the right of the people to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new government, laying its foundation on such principles, and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their safety and happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shown that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same object, evinces a design to reduce them under absolute despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such government, and to provide new guards for their future security."
Anything look familiar there?
