You did!

You said that people from US territories were American a few pages ago! And born and bred is what I am talking about! Anyone can get an American passport and be like "i'm American" but really they are the nationality of the country that they were born in.

I said they're American, I never said they're American born and bred. How is that the same thing?

Because it is.

If you are American you are American by birth. End of dicussion.
It says British on my birth certificate because I was born here not because I have a British passport.

Why? You're coming up with your own definition. And don't live here. Can't you listen to those actually from the US?

And to be honest you might not agree which is fine. But really I do not consider people from Guam or Puerto Rico or any of those places to be American. They are thousands of miles away from the continent (especially Guam). You do not just become American just because you are a territory. After all they were taken by America.

And I would bet most Americans would agree with me.
They would not, they would think your idea sounds somewhat foreign though. And how are you more of an immigrant than unbrainwashed?

Owen, time to get out of your la....la..... land and experience the outside world.

Its for your own good. Some of the comments you make would be potentially offensive to people visiting forums.
