Yes an imigrant can become British in title, but British isnt just a word written on a passport ...to be British is something I consider very speacial and very unique ... you can not just become British overnight, British is something much more than that ...it is hard to describe what I mean infact I'm not even sure what I mean, but I am sure that British is something in the blood so to speak, it is a belief, a culture it is many things. I am not sure you can say the same about been an American to be honest ..but as I am not one I suppose it is impossible for me to say.

Yes Hesperex - that's why I added this line:
'That is if you are talking about becoming a BriTish citizen and getting a BriTish passport.'
But I would argue that what you describe is not being 'BriTish - but 'English'.
