Do you agree that the identity of the nation was forged by those of European heritage?

Certainly they wrote the documents. But in the intervening centuries a unique American identity has been forged which has vastly diverged from where Europe has gone off to. For which I give thanks.

Identity of the nation? I would say that was forged by the DoI and Constitution and the War of Independence those documents arose from.

And those were forged by men whose fathers and grandfathers were from Europe and whom soundly rejected “European culture.” They were mostly 2nd and 3rd generation Americans before there was a United States.

The ultimate rejection of the whole Eurotard culture was the War of Independence.
