I pasted this response from the page on the US, as you have a valid point.
"In response to the original poster, you will not get this past because this has to be done by consensus, majority rule, and even if the majority are wrong, their decision stands. "American" as a demonym of the US is a fallacy, but vehemently upheld by US citizens and forced into public usage, whereas "American" does, in fact, refer to the people of the Americas, north and south. There are grumblings from various American (from the Americas, not just the US) anthropologists to change this fallacy but the reaction has been akin to that of the journalist covering the story of the outbreak of war with Canada in the South Park movie; "Naturally, we're not listening"... Tough break champ, you have a valid point, but good luck getting it through."
