I am opposed to this suggestion, because there are two countries called "United 
States" in North America: the United States of America, and the United States 
of Mexico.

Yes, when people say "United States" they typically mean America and not 
Mexico, but the USA is just as often referred to as "America" as it is "United 
States," which is another reason not to proceed with the change.
