I'll go. I'm still proud of every American who has held in there through these 8 years and not given up on turning things around. We know what it is to live free and despite all the obstacles ahead there is still places that you can experience it.

Despite this anti-immigrant push from the far right, we are very accepting of immigrants in general. If you've lived in the US for a while and speak English, we assume you are American and we consider you to be American. You don't even need to have citizenship to necessarily be considered American by the average person. You just have to have been here for a while. This is much more open and accepting and than the vast majority of countries are.
