An American that is. To be an American is an Idea,
\nnothing more, nothing less. Place of birth has nothing to do with it. I firmly believe there are many born in this country who are
\nnot Americans. They fail to see the Idea, they fail to understand
\nthe Idea, they fail to live the Idea.
\nMany of these Psuedo-Americans call themselves Christians, but
\nthey are not, Christ spins in his grave over that one, for if
\nthey were they might very well get a glimmer of the Idea.
\nTake it on down the line for me, will you?
\nOne other thought, this Idea goes hand in glove with the ongoing
\nexperiment we are all involved in called “Democracy”.
