norteamericano 

The literal definition is 'North American', applying to residents of all of the countries of North America. However, typically it's used as a more politically correct way of saying 'from the United States' because in Spanish America does in fact refer to two continents comprising of 35 countries, not just one. Central and South Americans might take exception to the usage of 'americano' because it insinuates that they are not Americans as well.
Gringo: Soy americano.
Tico: No, nosotros somos americanos--usted es norteamericano.

Power Couple 

A relationship between two people who are equally as cool as each other. They are as individually awesome and fun to be around as they are when they are together.

Neither one depends on the other for their feelings of self worth- they know in their heart that they are just as valuable to the world as the other. Good looking, optimistic, and sparks a light in the world that people recognize that goes beyond a normal relationship.

In a power couple, if one person is flawed, the other person makes up for their weaknesses in strength. Together they are the epitome of what anyone would desire in a relationship. They encourage goodness in the world and make it a better place by being together.
I'm a fan of those two, they are such a power couple, the epitome of what anyone would want in a relationship.

I am envious of them because they are a power couple.
