And there is influence if your are foreign born. I have lived in this country since the age of 11, I am a naturalized citizen, but I still defend my country of birth if anyone makes derogatory comments. I’m a loyal American, vote in every election, do my homework about the candidates and issues, have always held a job until retirement, and never had to rely on social services for help. but I still feel affection for my country of birth. I attended citizenship classes before achieving citizenship, and know I could never run for President or V.P., the highest offices in the land.

Of course you still have a heart for the old country. Its natural but like my parents, you were so happy and proud to become American. There still are people that do this nowadays and my recently naturalized Brother in Law put us to shame for all we did not know when he quizzed us. My parents are from Italy. The stories I could tell you about Musolini is kinda weird coming from a 53 year old. My mom, an infant, was made to cry so the German soldiers would leave my grandparents home. It worked! But it was a terrible time. Huh, now with 400K syrians going there, I won’t. ALways goes back to the Damage Obama Caused these days doesn’t it? Thank you
