The United States Navy can trace its origins to the Continental Navy, which the Continental Congress established during the American Revolutionary War. The United States Constitution, ratified in 1789, empowered Congress "to provide and maintain a navy." Acting on this authority, Congress ordered the construction and manning of six frigates; one of the original six, USS Constitution, familiarly known as "Old Ironsides," survives to this day.

The US did in 1803 when we fought our first over seas war in Monazuma. We were trading with other countries in the Med. sea and we did not pay the "priates" monet to not attack our trade ships. They were called terrorist then. The US went to a short war with the terrorist and won. The Congress adopted a "no negotiation" standard then.

Yes !!! I live in New ORleans (one of the ports). My family has been hear long before the LOuisiana Purchase. We are Americans rather that French today only because the America of 1803 had enough sense to realize the port of New ORleans was critical to the survival of the United States. During the War of 1812 we fought the Battle of New Orleans to stop the British from taking the port. During the Civil War the the first move of the Union Andaconda Plan was to seize the port of New Orleans and during WWII the first place combat occured between the U.S. and Germany was with German submarines trying to close off the port of New Orleans. Now, in 2006, we sell our ports to a country which helped produce the 9/11 highjackers? What is going on in Washington these days?

It is a silly question  No one discovered the United States.  The United States is a political construct.  North America was discovered by John Cabot (I think), leaving aside the Vikings and Basque fishermen.  \n\nColumbus discovered the Caribbean.
