As far as my heritage is concerned and according to the historian Henry Louis Gates, Jr. there is a paper trail of my family's heritage that can be linked to Charlemagne.
BFD, is my comment.
The point here is that I am from Europe, plain and simple and my ancestors settled here and gave birth to people who eventually gave birth to me and my siblings.
We are original Americans so to speak... and I AM NOT REPONSIBLE for slavery, nor is my daughter responsible for anything that I might have done.
I have lived through several presidents going back to Eisenhower who I barely knew but remember his name being thrown around at the dinner table.
Some of these presidents were good, others not, most were just mediocre, since the Congress is really what gets the work done, up until the presidents realized they could sign Executive Orders and bypass the Congress.
Wonder why they needed to do that; I wonder??? LOL
Since 2016, I have heard people say that if a certain person gets elected president that they are going to leave the USA out of disrespect for that president.
I cannot understand why any American would feel that way and continue to seriously refer to themselves as American. Americans support this country regardless of what she does or does not do because they are Americans.
I did not support the Vietnam War, but I still enlisted in the military in 1969 and served until 1974. Because of that enlistment, my entire college education was paid for, no student loans.
I am not a liberal, a democrat, or a socialist but I will remain in this country and support her even if one of them gets elected in November.
Why?
Because I am an American!!!
