Yet another foolish and pointless discussion. When he ran 2:05:whatever it was, he was recognized by the US government as an american citizen. As far as I am concerned, american record means the fastest time ever run by someone recognized as a US citizen. If you, or anyone else for that matter, believes that american record should only apply to people who were born in america, why don't you just kill yourself and save us rational folk the trouble of having to listen to your bullshit. Its not that you aren't entitled to have an opinion, its just that it should be legal to hunt people who think like you do and then have the gall to intentionally piss people off.
