If you drive a Nissan, you're not an American?

I hate the whole "Buy American" nonsense. I buy whatever the hell I want to buy. I know on the 2011 Mustangs about 40% of the car is foreign. A

I hate the whole "Buy American" nonsense. I buy whatever the hell I want to buy. I know on the 2011 Mustangs about 40% of the car is foreign. A lot of it is made by Hitachi and its subsidiaries.

+1, buy the best car. If you support America, then why would you humor an inferior product for the sake of its brand (if that is the case)? It would just encourage lazyness, sloth, and we wouldn't be where we are today if that was all we encouraged. We would already be where we are headed

That's what I am trying to figure out about you. Are you some wannabe playing Asian with F&F posters on the wall who likes typing a few lines now and then, or are you the real deal and the language and culture are truly yours, sans FF posters.
