does anyone agree that because America is so diverse that is its strength. "referring to the Survivor series

Question

This nation is great because the best of all races have their chance .The question I'm asking is have we not been divided by race and culture in the past and don't we know this is better? I have been on a lot of teams in various situations and I know that in each of those instances I had great team members and bad,but the difference was never race it was talent for what ever the team was trying to do. Every American has had a team member that was weak or strong on that team that was of thier same race. The truth is we want to win so we pick the stronger team member(at least true winners do) the others that pick based on race are those weak team members that think they can hide behind a group that accept's their weakness. Americans will only get stronger (much much stronger) if the weak racist(black,white,latino,asian,arab,etc....) are rooted out and not be allowed to hide behind their god given group! They will tear us apart and ruin what history has shown is the greatest nation ever.

Answer 1

Survivor is a joke. They shall hug and kiss when they are done competing. I will not watch such nonsense.

Answer 2

Problem is, you summed it up pretty well, there. Racism isn't confined to one race. Further, you've got a strain of it yourself there. Hitler was all about rooting out 'the weak' etc. also. Take a look in the mirror, there, before you start assigning/attributing negative qualities to others with impunity. One day, you'll be old and feeble, and looking at the world through different eyes...
and the next time someone starts hyping 'diversity is our strength', keep one hand over your wallet, and walk, rapidly, in the opposite direction, because they're selling something.

Final note on 'survivor': It's really not that competitive because their 'survival' only pertains to surviving ratings sweeps. There's beer behind the cameraman on 'Survivor'....what a joke of a show, all politics, all boring, all the time...and watching television is not a survival skill, it's something you do until the pizza dude shows up with the food you didn't cook for yourself, sitting in a house you didn't build, using electricity you didn't generate,
wearing clothes you didn't make, etc etc etc. 'Survivor' is just more tele-politics, avoid it like the plague, watch the Discovery Channel and see how hyenas feel about 'survival'...when was the last time YOU brought down a gazelle with your bare hands?

Answer 3

I once told a friend from England I was Irish and he said "no you are not". He was right. I am American, as are all the other people who live here. Diversity is our strength. Even though we have differences, when it is required we stick together. History shows this country has always been divided in thirds. One conservative, one liberal, and one on the fence. Even during the revolution, one group backed the king, one group wanted independence, and the rest sat on the fence. As for "Survivor", the groups will work and bond together, until they become one tribe. That will be telling, if the people stick together by race or not.

Answer 4

I think that the makers of Survivor, which I plan on watching tonight, are running out of ways to make things interesting. They know that people like you are going to get their panties in a wad and watch or just make waves about it which also makes people want to watch. Personally, I don't care what race wins because it's not really about race, it's about who plays the game and lasts the longest. I'm white and cheered for Cirrie last season, but who cares? In the end, people who have a brain in their head will figure out that the color of your skin or where you're from isn't really what's important.

Answer 5

I think that saying is referring to a diversity of opinion, perspective, and background. And these are things that are the natural result of having a population of mixed race. Obviously, we are weaker if all support the same perspectives, have the same opinions and have the same backgrounds.

I don't know why your post devolved into a rascist rant but consider this: the more the races interbreed, the healthier we become as a population.

Answer 6

Greatest nation ever?
That cliché has long outlived its uselfulness, particularly now under George II.

Answer 7

I'd disagree. Having too many cultures undermines a nations identity and unity.

Answer 8

Yes are diversity is what makes us strong.
We are the best of all races.

Answer 9

I think this is ridicules the network has stooped to a new low
