    NO, you’re not the only one who feels this way, Andrew, there are MANY who do, including me. I think it started as a pride thing for those in a certain minority, and just grew from there. Now everyone seems vehemently bent on proving their ‘otherness’, rather than trying to be part of a whole. I believe that this is keeping the seams of our country frayed just enough that there will never be real cohesion…we’re now more like a patchwork quilt, rather than a ‘melting pot’ where every ingredient blends well with another. Personally, I call myself an American ‘mutt’ because it would be too much to call myself an ‘Irish-German-Dutch-Bohemian-American.’
