I personally don't care, but others may need some evidence to prove Connor isn't specifically ON the American's side in the war.
Off topic, but did anyone else notice that, in the gameplay trailer, he refers to himself as "free", not a "man of courage"? Maybe he's gonna be a bit more humble than Altair and Ezio, but I guess his background does explain that. Doesn't said background remind you of Batman's; just a little bit?
