Ok, from what I gather, Vinman was born in America, lives there his whole life, doesn't speak Italian, has rarely been to the country. None of this matters, his family is Italian, his heritage is Italian, his damn blood is Italian, he feels Italian. He has nothing to prove to anyone. Nothing said here changes that, nothing can take that from him. The guy even says he's proud of America as well as his heritage. I dont see why this discussion has raged on so long. Pointless.
The argument about his blood is retarded and only shows you the Ancien Régime still influences some people.
