Don't forget from the American Revolution until today, we are a nation of immigrants. When I was in Marine Corps boot camp I taught Mexican-Americans how to read and study to graduate and those same Mexican-American Marines saved this Irish-American on more than one occasion in Viet Nam. Any person who fights for the stars and stripes deserves citizenship. Semper Fi

This route (military service) is a good way to help immigrants understand what being an American means. Your experiences make this very clear IMHO.
