Is Gatsby an American?

Restlessness. This is what I always feel toward Americans. I feel Americans are so active and diligent. Here, in the Great Gatsby, Gatsby seems restless. 'He was never quite still; there was always a tapping foot somewhere or the impatient opening and closing of a hand.' I felt that Gatsby would never give up until he reaches the goal. I could tell that from Baker's telling. Baker said Gatsby moved his house, and wanted Nick to invite Daisy to his tea party so that Daisy can see Gatsby's house. I am pretty sure he wouldn't stop until he reaches the goal just like most enthusiastic Americans. He was also the patriot. Most Americans that I saw was patriots. He attended the War for America. Since Americans have the proud that they are living in the best country and everyone wants to live in there, patriotism comes naturally. Thus, I think he is a true American.
