Last time I was in the US, I was considered an alien! I was just arriving from Denmark. Ok, you can take my story as a joke, but I real mean it. You need to define what you mean, when you say "alien". Some people means 'extra terrrestial', some people means just 'foreign' or 'different' , some people means ... whatever. I think you can pinpoint your problems to just this issue. Ok bye from Planet Denmark! :-P It’s great that you poke at the tabloids, but what I think you should do (in all english speaking countries), is to ponder over what you really mean by the small word “alien”.
