No you don’t understand at all. We were Americans before we were citizens of the U.S. The fact that we were Under French, English, and Spanish control did not change the fact that we were still Americans. The first 13 American colonies were English and then we added others but they were all native Americans except for a handful who were born outside America.
“No you don’t understand at all. “
Not sure if “you” being referred to here is for me or Michelle or someone else.
If it was to me, please let me know where I conveyed that to anyone.
