I mean, that's fine, but no one world-wide is going to hear "American" and think anything but "a citizen of The United States of America". So, what's the point of trying to push it as such? For all the hate American citizens get, you'd think you'd want to separate yourself as much as possible from the title. Canadians certainly won't like being called Americans, that's for sure.
