what it means to be an american

An American enjoysall the benifets of living in America. Freedom! Freedom defines America We are the land of the free and the home of the brave. Americans have heritage from all around the world. Unless you are an Indian, nobody's family goes back way in time to still live in America. We are a nation of Imigrants. I myself am Spanish, Indian, Mexican, Irish, and English. But I am still a true American. I have a friend who is African-American, Hawiian, and Filipino. He is also a true American. Americans are diverse people who are all free to think, do, and believe whatever they want.
