In this modern day and age, what does "my country" really mean ? A people of similar culture ? Maybe. The USA is a country I visited a where I lived for sometime and a country I learned to love. The USA is probably the most beautiful country in the world. You need to visit it to REALLY understand what I mean. Within t the context of my question, let me say this -- I find it a little hard to see the USA as a country within the popular definition of "country" . They are a society of COMPLETELY different people, customs and mentality. It is a society completely devided by social class, colour (sorry... 'color'). My perception is that each American is first white, then of some social/financial class and then, at the bottom, American. How can anyone be proud of being American and less than 100 years ago hang fellow (black) Americans from trees and less than 15 years ago sustain anything like the LA riots (the outcome of trial of Rodney King). I'd love to read comments from Americans
