I've noticed people from the UK, Australia and Canada ask questions about U.S. politics, U.S. TV, U.S. history, etc. Why is that? Why the popularity of life in the U.S. I visit all the English speaking sites because I'm interested in their views, but I'm surprised about all the questions about the U.S. I'm somewhat a stickler on use of the English language and find I'm reading more intelligent questions posed from other countries than from my own. I wish I could visit the non-English sites to learn more about them. I have visited all the English speaking countries amd a few other countries as well and have always felt at home everywhere I went. I don't take the "ugly American" image with me when I visit. I always believe "when in Rome, do as the Romans do". How more simple can that be? One thing I can say about the American education system is; there are too many countries in the world and not enough time in school to cover even a tiny percentage of the history of other countries.
