or Mexican American they take away from themselves the right that they already have, the right to be an "American".
Being American isnt about White, Black, Japaniese, Hispanic, Irish, or whatever. its about liveing in a country where we are all supposed to be free. no matter what color race or religon or country of origin you are.
By classifying yourself as anything other than an "American" you are setting up your own differences from everybody else and createing your own conflicts along with.
America is the Great melting pot of the world. anyone can come here and become a citizen, and if you were born here you already are, people need to realize that this is the only country in the world that this is possible. and they need to appreciate it and start showing it I am an American,I was born here, it doesnt matter where my parents were born.
