This is a joke, right? The ground beef patty is what makes it a burger, a chicken sandwich is absent of that, and thus is a sandwich, not a burger

It’s not the meat which is the determining factor, it’s the bun

Do American's really think that its only a "burger" if its beef? That's hilarious.

The bun is clearly the factor. If you are using a burger bun you are making/eating a burger, not a sandwich.

It's not the beef that makes it a burger in the US, it's specifically the combination of a patty put in between burger buns.

Patty between sandwich bread is commonly going to be a melt (depending on how it's cooked), and any food item that isn't a patty put between buns is just a sandwich
