Oh Rudd - 
What a half-empty glass view it is when you say:
	"However, when it comes to stating nationality, African-American,
Scottish-American, Irish-	American, Hindu-Pakistani-Germanic-American,
etc., all have detractors from the "American" 	part."
Quite the reverse - it is one of the prides and blessings of living here
that the hyphen ADDS to the definition and richness of "American".
