[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Only the US is stupid enough to do this crap. [/quote]

Actually Scotland and Wales do this too[/quote]

Two world powers, eh?[/quote]

Actually, it's what makes the US pretty darn special: anyone can become an "American" if they want it bad enough. You can move here from Africa, Europe, or Asian and become American. Within a generation, no one will know how long your family has been in the States.

I can't move to Wales and become "Welsh." Neither can my kids. It's what separates us from the rest of the world and I'm OK with that.[/quote]

I agree that the US is special.  I am the child of immigrants.  They came here legally.  They recognized the importance of becoming US citizens and went through the long and arduous process of doing so.  They are now proud Americans, as am I.

This article is talking about people who are not citizens being given the rights of citizens - specifically the right to vote.  [/quote]
