America is a soveriegn nation, with its own culture(s), Laws, borders, system of government, and history. Many different peoples live within its borders, & many smaller, less strong nations depend on America to assist them (Puerto Rico) and keep them viable as nations.
America is the worlds breadbox in times of disaster, police force in times of trouble, and the worlds most coveted place to immigrate to. Yet, many of the differing cultures who reside within America still espouse hatred for the nation as a whole.
Who does America the nation belong to? Who does America the ideal belong to?
Who should America belong to?

This question was asked very carefully and precisely. Good job! America the nation belongs to big business all the lobbying big money backers of every politician in the US. America the ideal belongs to us as the citizens. We want to believe that we have the power, when sadly we can do little to change anything. And the Government wants it that way. Then we as the American public pass off the American dream to the immigrants. Who in turn come here only to find the dream is much more like a nightmare. So the Ideal also belongs to them. America in a perfect world should belong to the ALL the people with everyone having an equal voice. Unfortunately money often speaks louder than the people. Government doesn't want us to act....don't believe me? For the sake of time just think about voting times. Why do they hold voting when only the minority is able to vote? Hmmm?

It belongs to the citizens of the country.
It does NOT belong to people whose ancestors living in a different part of the continent gave it up long ago and have only decided they want it since we built it up to be something worth having.
Russia can't have Alaska back, and France can't have Louisiana. A deal is a deal.
I think there should be a lie detector test as part of a residency visa. In order to come you need to test truthfully that you like this country and its people, overall.

It belongs to idiot nationalists who say "The land of the free and the brave!" the manipulated aristocrats of America, but America belongs to Arthur Miller the father of Capitalism and trade, that's what America is all about, trade and capital (money) just like in the 1800s when we traded the slaves as if they were tools, wow now that's the American way! Dehumanize people! don't let them be free! let them be traded! be patriots, buy, trade and work foreign race people...

America belongs to the American people! People have fought and died for this country and what it represents ... and the sorry bunch in Washington is supposed to REPRESENT the American people, but do they? Like hell they do ... I say it's up to the true patriots to take back this country, and make it as great as it once was ...

Dumb question. posessession is 9/10 of the law. America belongs to the legal citizens who have fought for her.
