Hmmm, well since the Non-Americans look just like you, I'm going to have shake my head. The citizenship of the few you call Non-Americans, those who hold the reigns of policy and finances, are also the ones who handle the funding to those who make the policy of who gets citizenship. You can't revoke your governments sovereignty by saying that the people working in it are not citizens, your citizenship is shared with them by you as much as they share it with you.

I think I understand what the OP's getting at. You put people in a position of power so that they can run the country on your behalf, and represent you. Unfortunately these people often do the opporsite, they appear to run the country on their own agenda, not yours. They do things such as starting wars or getting involved in the business of other countries and they do so in your name and yet you may not want them to do these things, it wasn't why they were put in charge. So then the hatred that is directed at these people, by association appears to also be directed at you, when in fact it is not.
Some people may say they hate McDonalds, but it certainly doesn't mean they hate the guy who makes the Big Macs or wipes the tables.

So you are saying that papers make a true patriot and not what a person would do, say or sacrifice to hold true to what America was founded on.
The actions of the few are more and more Un-American as each day passes. This is proof that they don`t even consider themselves American but rather above what it means to be so.
Peace

Erm, America evolves friend, it becomes something it wasn't because the founding fathers wanted you to change, they gave you the framework for continual change, not stagnation.
Maybe your leaders are changing your nation, and you don't like that, but change is what America was built on, stabilized and prophecized change in government.
The only reason to call them Un-American would be if they held onto office beyond their term limits, though you can also say they are committing un-American acts that you do not like because of their powerful positions to guide the gradual evolution of American society are being used to guide it the wrong way.

Bush stole an election and so stayed in office longer than he was wanted and Obama gave himself the right to arrest, detain and execute without charge, proof or trial.
Un-American actions as far as I can see.
I really don't think that's the "Change" that was meant in that framework.

What most people don't like about the USA has nothing to do with the average law abiding Conservative Americans. There was a time us "foreigners" loved to buy products manufactured in the USA because they were the best quality that lasted almost a lifetime and the excitement of the little corner American donut shop and KFC in the early years.
What we don't like is the moral decline of America that's infestering other nations, it's Govt's foreign policies and dispicable trade agreements, it's interference in other country's elections (not just that of 2rd and 3rd world nations), etc .
