I'm going to let Sparafucil take care of this one.

You're both right. American history is laden with evidence of both British and French influence. It doesn't seem like there's a real argument here though. There is no doubt in my mind that British traditions and culture more heavily influence our nation. I'm not sure how anyone with even a slight grasp of American history could make a worthwhile argument against that notion. Not even the venerable Spar A. Fucile.

Plus, don't let someone else fight your battles for you... weaksauce.
