How would that work? I see where you are going, but if someone in Canada is Canadian and American, am I just American?

America, to me a US citizen, does not mean the country "The Unites States of America" It means the continents that contain the US, Canada, Mexico, Cuba, Columbia, Brazil, Peru, Venezuela and the rest. It was named for Amerigo Vespucci, the Italian Explorer who first came here in the 1400s, long before the first English Settlers showed up, and long before the formation of the United States of America. That name came from the idea that the 13 colonies would be come 13 countries, but would operate together on foreign issues, Even through the civil war many people considered the state that country, and the USA just a body that handled other issues. I am an American, Canadians are Americans, Brazilians are Americans Sorry for the rant, just had to get that off my chest. > -----Original Message----- > From: SMR [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: Tuesday, January 14, 2003 2:15 PM > To: CF-Community > Subject: Re: Did the Chinese discover America? > > South America is part of the America's not America per say. > > ----- Original Message ----- > From: "Nick McClure" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > To: "CF-Community" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Sent: Tuesday, January 14, 2003 2:06 PM > Subject: RE: Did the Chinese discover America? > > > > Last time I checked South America is part of America ;) > > > > Canada is on the continent of North America. > > > > > > > -----Original Message----- > > > From: SMR [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > > > Sent: Tuesday, January 14, 2003 1:56 PM > > > To: CF-Community > > > Subject: Re: Did the Chinese discover America? > > > > > > Damn CF has ruined my brain..
