_____-American: Fill in the blank with whatever race you choose (except white).

A pandemic of political correctness gone seriously awry, due to the pussification of America.

A hyphenated American is anyone who takes up space on American soil who isn't white. Since one can no longer used terms like black, Negro, Chinaman, beaner, etc. we now have to say things like African-American, Mexican-American, Hispanic-American, Chinese-American, etc. ad-nauseam.

This phenomenon exists ironically despite the fact that all those people are still Americans, and only Americans! How can you be African and American? You can't. You're either African or American, not both. You can however be a black American (like a white American).

Of course, only non-whites can be hyphenated Americans, because white Americans are simply called Americans, no other term applies.

The other poster of this term has obviously not realized that white americans are, technically, "Caucasian-Americans" just as black americans are, technically, "African-Americans". Pandemics of political correctness are because of people like him/her: ahem, the racists. Educate yourself before forming harmful world views, please. And if you don't want to take the time to do that, then shut the fuck up.
