Deadline: White House – 6/5/25 | 5PM

We need to think about what “American” means. It isn’t a race. It isn’t an ethnic identity. What is unique about this country is that anyone can be an American. Not just anyone can be French, but anyone can become an American. Some years ago there was some complaining about “hyphenated Americanism”, like Italian-Americans, Asian-Americans and the like. Maybe we need to start uplifting those who chose to be Americans. There is a reason they come here to build a new life in this country.
