I don't think Nonito is an American ... I mean I wont get into all that discussion of where he has lived in the past years in all that.
I don't consider him an american because at least for me, it looks like he fights for Philippines and not for the USA. He's called the The Filipino Flash and always enters the ring with the Philippines flag and has his crow of Filipino followers.Comment

If an individual is a citizen of a nation, then yes, they are of that nationality and belong to that nation.
I have clear, set, criteria of the meaning of nationality, you on the other hand, have added new elements of what constitutes nationality with several new posts.
According to you, nationality is defined by 3 things; the country the individual was born in, their parents nationality and their own personal opinion of which nationality they think they are. Those are your criteria, so far, and I won't be surprised if more elements are added.
You are adding new elements to what constitutes nationality with every new post. Now an individual's choice of what nationality they are is also thrown in the mix, in that case Nonito Donaire considers himself a Filipino-American, so do you agree with him or do you still believe he is exclusively Filipino?

No, because she was born in France and has British parents she was born with dual nationality, she can consider herself French or British. Nonito was born with 1 nationality and that is Filipino.

Yeah, I don't agree with everything but Mayweather had one fight in 2010, one fight in 2009, none in 2008. I mean 2 fights in 4 years and now he's one of the fighters that are reclaiming boxing? He has a lot of talent, but he's completely wasting it especially with all the legal problems that he has gotten into.Comment

I think you're an original American only if you are White American or African American. I know technically it's not suppose to be that way, but that's just my opinion.
In all of my documents, my passport, all my papers etc it says my nationality is United States of America/American. Yet I was not born here, but I am 22 and have been living here for 21 years and 9 months. But before I was born, my mother was already a U.S. Citizen, but she was not born here either. I know technically i'm an American but I just don't feel I am one because I was not born here.
When some one asks me what am I, I don't say I am Dominican-American or American, I simply say i'm Dominican. I love USA and all, and I wanted to join the Marines. But personally when i'm asked I just say i'm Dominican.
But with that said, if you are ???-American, and you want to say that is what you are, then more power to you. But you'll never really be looked at as an original American or be treated like a "real" American would be treated. You are still a Mexican, a Dominican, a Fillipino, in other Americans eyes. Once you do something bad, you will get disowned. Like Tiger Woods who's part white, once he went through that scandal, all endorsements left him, he was all of a sudden not white. But you see Tom Brady going through that **** scandal, who's 100% white American, he keeps his career intact, keeps the endorsements, nothing happens.
Yes I know I went off-topic.Comment
