J.P. I identify my self as an American. While most people don't think of America as an unique culture I do. Americans may be made up immigrants, but we all are united under one cause...freedom. At one point in a time our ancestors decided enough is enough and they left. They went to a new land and risked it all for freedom. Look now, Americans have prevailed and never give up. Americans don't let the gov't carry on with unjust wars or causes. In time with the American system they can change it. Never giving in to one central power. My song is Hands Held High by Linkin Park. http://m.youtube.com/index?desktop_uri=%2F&gl=US#/watch?v=7gZtaV8Swas
