Unlike Europe, we are a Republic founded on an Ideal..not a historic boundry or race.
That's a lie, of course, but a very useful lie which has gotten a lot of play over the past 20 years. But it simply is not true, as anyone who knows any real history could tell you (as opposed to the ideology mascarading as history which causes people to believe the lie that "we" are an "ideology" and not a nation). No true American 18th, 19th, or early 20th century American would have ever fallen for so preposterous a lie.
I'm not sure what you are considering a lie, but I assuming you don't know squat about history either.
