I ran across out there in the wilds of the net. Call me looney but I kinda like the thought.
Nemo
“I choose not to be a ‘common’ man. It is my right to be ‘uncommon.’
I seek opportunity, not ‘security.’ I do not wish to be a ‘kept citizen,’ humbled and dulled by having the state ‘look after’ me.
I want to take the calculated risk; to dream and to build; to fail or succeed: to daily breath the blessed air of freedom. I refuse to barter incentive for a dole. I prefer challengers of life to ‘guaranteed existence,’ the thrill of fulfillment to the calm of ‘utopia.’
I will not trade freedom for beneficence, nor my dignity for a handout. I will never cower before any master, nor bend to any threat.
It is my heritage to audaciously stand erect, proud and unafraid, to think and act for myself, to enjoy the benefits of my creation, and to face the world boldly and say:
‘This I have done’” ~ Anon

More info. And the one above is a bit edited. I like the full version. Despite it being only a bit shortened, I find the removed bit important.

How do you reply with any response other than I AM AN AMERICAN?

Add that as a first or last line?
