I don’t see anything to indicate he’s an American.
He is from Argentina.
They meant as in from the Americas viz. Western Hemisphere.
Argentina where he was born is in South America.
so he’s definitely an American in the conventional definition.
although his father was an Italian immigrant.
hee's from Argentina....Argentina is in south america.....ie:American
Of course he’s an American — a South American, born in Argentina.
South American
