  There's no reason to have american pride especially if your family recently moved to America and didn't build anything there. There's no american race. Some people are proud of the values that America stands for, such as freedom of speech. But personally, I associate America more with degenerence. German pride means that you are proud of your people and of what they have built, be it in Germany, America, or elsewhere.  If you consider yourself as an American before everything, it means that you forget that everything that is american has been built by Europeans, except for the repulsive negro music and culture which I think is nothing to be proud of.  No, everything in America has not been built by Europeans. A White person born in America, or with American citizenship, is not a European, they're an American of European descent. America has it's own unique and separate identity from Europa. I have pride in my European heritage, but I am not a European, I am an American, I'm of the New World. The music and culture of America is NOT negro(unless you mean hip hop and funk and even they would not be possible without some White influences), that is a Blackcentric, Jewish, liberal perpetuated lie, myth, misconception to make the Blacks feel as if they have contributed something to America other than crime, urban blight and AIDS.    Jazz music is WHITE not BLACK as they like to say, the first Jazz band was White and the first people to name this music Jazz were White and there are threads on here about that, also Big Band music sometimes referred to as swing. And of course Country-Western, Bluegrass, American Folk music, Rock N' Roll and all of it's descendants such as Heavy Metal and Punk Rock are White as well. So please...learn history before you insult us Americans by calling our country's music and culture degenerate negro culture. Next time you're listening to your head banging heavy metal remember rock music comes from a degenerate negro culture  :rolleyes: The Blacks have had next to zero influence on American culture until relatively recently, they were completely assimilated into White American culture, not the other way around. They adopted our names, clothing styles, foods(like fried chicken), instruments and musical styles.
