My problem with the term "American Nationalist" is the fact that we are a nation of 50 Sovereign States. To me, a nationalist denies that fact. I am an American, but I am a citizen of the United STATES of America, and a citizen of the Sovereign State of Texas FIRST.
If at some point in the future, a Spanish speaking majority in the State of Texas decides they want to secede and become part of Mexico, what will you be then?
