Except that if you're a 'British American' and you have both passports, it is *illegal* to travel to the US on the other one.
You *must* travel on your US passport.
This is like saying, I don't mind what you call yourself in private, in public you must wave the flag and do the dance. Hardly tolerent is it.
You see, all the Americans I know say that this is fine, after all if you are a dual-national then of course you'd want to reject the non-American bit.
Funnily enough, everyone else thinks it's jingoistic nonsense.
P.S. My G.F. is dual national (IRE/US) which is why I know this.

Then why is it so difficult
to travel to Britain and get a job?
