There is ancestry, or genetics if you will, and political states. The US
has been a state since its inception. 'American' conveys no information
about ethnicity, hence all the hyphens.
And "American" can get a bit ambiguous. To part of the audience, it
might mean "from the American *continent*", to other part it might mean
"from the USA".
(Note to those who have learned a different definition: in some
cultures, America is the name of the single continent containing what
others call "South America" and "North America".)
