The American point of view is that anyone who adopts America as their home is American. I don’t care what a piece of paper says. You move here and make your home here, you’re one of us.
The American point of view is that people are American when it allows Americans to keep to their narrow minded patriotism and aren’t when it doesn’t suit it.
What’s an example of “aren’t when it doesn’t suit it?”
Does every state share this view?
Yes every state shares this view. They may not assume you’re American upon meeting you but if you tell someone you are, they will almost certainly accept it.
