OK...I don't have time to argue
all of your points, so I'll just pick this one, for the time being. Sorry SF, I
am an American, and America most certainly
is my nationality. The first "O'Rights" stepped off of the boat from Manheim Germany in 1722.
I have no ties to Deutschland. I speak just enough German to get my face slapped by some frueliens in Frankfurt. So, I
am an American, by blood, by heritage and by destiny. And, by the way, I'm also pretty damn proud of it.
