What are you doing for the 4th of July?
Considering that the 4th is a U.S. holiday, I doubt most "Americans" celebrated it.
I see no reason why Canadians and Mexicans (North Americans), and Central or South Americans would even care about honoring the birth of the United States.
The Americas (and hence Americans) are continents/regions defined by geography. The United States is a nation defined by political ideologies.
There is a difference.

I'd rather be ignorant than stupid.
Ignorance implies a lack of knowledge which is easily correctable through education.
Stupidity implies an inability to learn.
Therefore; ignorance is temporary, stupidity is forever!
