In many circumstances, the term "American" is used to reference specifically citizens of the United States of America. In English, there is no good adjective for a person from the United States, the way "Canadian" means "a person from Canada." As a result, the term "American" is often used to mean "a person from the USA."
However, America is more than the United States. The term "American" can mean anyone who comes from or is associated with "America" and America includes all the countries of North, Central, and South America. In that sense, a Canadian or an Argentinean has an equal right with an US person to the term "American."
