America(n)
Two continents and many islands -- an area -- hijacked and compressed into a single country by the United States and its citizens. Brazilians, Chileans, Canadians, Mexicans, Cubans, Haitians . . . all are Americans, as the French, Germans, Italians, Swedes, British (since the chunnel) and all the rest are Europeans. There is no American flag. There is no American anthem, There is the United States OF America, a description, though no less silly than Canada of America or Chile of America. Bill Kurtis has a helluva noive. America -- love it or leave it: Embrace Fidel's dictatorship or move to France.
