You couldn't be more wrong, my friend! I am an American citizen, and an armiger, bearing arms granted by the Lord Lyon King of Arms...who also granted arms to a certain former Secretary of State not too long ago, one General Colin Powell. Secretary Powell received the Letters Patent in his office, at the hand of Lord Lyon Blair himself. While he was Secretary of State, I might add.
You would do yourself a great service by following the advice of Cajunscot, and reading up on the use of heraldry in the USA.

Not only General Powell, but a number of US Presidents, including Washington, were armigers. While most were not regular users, The General was quite the devotee of heraldry, and his arms may be found all over Mt. Vernon.

Currently I have semi-personal cards since I am unemployed. They are based on the business card format but do not mention any company. On the cards I have "IT Sales Professional" under my name, a little under that "Server, Storage and Retention Solutions", then my home and mobile numbers and email address along with my LinkedIn site.
For those that would like to have calling cards, I might suggest you look at vistaprint.com where you can get 250 cards for free plus the cost of shipping ($14.95 for expedited 1 week delivery)
