Maybe, when swearing in new Americans?
They describe what more be accepted?
That once you become a citizen your country of birth is secondary.

If America goes to war with yours?
Your first loyalty?
Is toward America.
You, now an American citizen.

American citizenship is a powerful title.
Even us born here must realize the strength of being American.
Why I'm surprised many freely give it up?

Even those that later feel the need to change their minds later?
Find, it's not that easy getting it back.
And in a way, it should be like that.

For some reasons, many think the country was created perfectly.

Be proud to be American.
We control the action of our political leaders?
Many are aware of this.
