I was born and raised in the United States. My parents were born here, too. My grandparents were born in the middle east(Lebanon). So, I consider myself an Arab American. What about you?

Born here in america. My decent is Irish and Hungarian. And so I consider myself as an american.
 
I was born here, so was my father, grandfather and great grandfather on my mothers side.

When folks ask me what Nationality I am I reply; American.

American. Great grandparents are from Italy.
 
Our family roots go back to when there where only 13 states. When asked what nationality I am, I proudly respond, AMERICAN!
 
Born in the U.S.

Norwegian, Dutch, and Japanese decent. My grandmother's maiden name actually makes her Swedish or Danish not Norwegian. My great aunt told me that we also had Spanish and Scottish roots from the Viking days too. :laughing:

I am very happy to consider myself a melting pot American. I am grateful for the family traditions that have been passed down from each country, and after traveling all over the world I better understand my grandparent's traditions.

I now live on the Left Coast, grew up in the Mid-West and was born on the East Coast. Cultures and traditions are different just being an American living in these three areas. My wife is Hispanic with a few other things mixed in, so we are definately a melting pot family. It is all good!

My god father was from Lebanon. Sadly, my godmother and godfather split up while I was growing up and we lost touch with him. I still miss him. He taught me how to carve a Thanksgiving turkey. One piece for them, one piece for us... :)
 
I'm American and proud of it! Heritage is a ton of stuff, half of which I don't know. So, I would consider myself a mutt when it comes to that.
 
I'm an American, but in the pc world I would be a french canadian-german-scots-irish American. American sounds much better.
 
Proud to be an American, born and raised, grandparents came from Canada and Ireland.
 
Italian, English and German.

My grandmother is 100% italian and my grandfather was 100% english. my mothers parents were german.

my grandfathers side of the family used to be silversmiths to the queen in the 15-1600's. My family tree goes back to the DuPont Family and to mary ball washington, George washingtons mother.

today our family is still in metal crafting.

i was born in america and so was my father and grandparents. my grandmothers side the italian side didnt come over till the early 1900's. They lived in Delaware relating me to the Del Campo, Rainier, and DiSabatino family.
 
American Indian on my mothers side, not sure on my fathers since he was adopted.

I am definitely an American :dblthumb2:
 
I saw a slogan on a guys car that said "Proud to be an American" and I thought "What the ---- does that mean?"

I'm fully Irish, and when I was a kid I would go to the St Patrick's Day parade and they sold a button that said "Proud to be Irish", but I knew that on Columbus day they sold the same button only it said "Proud to be Italian", then came Black Pride, and Puerto Rican Pride. And I could never understand national or ethnic pride, because to me Pride should be reserved for something you achieve on your own.

Being Irish isn't a skill, it's a ------- genetic accident.

You wouldn't be proud to be 5'11". You wouldn't be proud to have a pre-disposition for colon cancer.

New Zealander. Lived there for 10 and a half years and then moved to Singapore for the past 8 or so years of my life (now I'm moving back home finally as of next week) :) Although my Mum is a Kiwi, she and her sisters can speak fluent Croatian as both her parents migrated from Croatia in the 40's, so therefore I am also half Croatian :D
