Answer 1

The USA and the American ppl are the children of the world. It is a vigin country that has mixed every culture on this planet together. Certainly, there is learning in blending these cultures, but none the less the USA has done it.

A marvioulous feat that the USA has only had one civil war and this was due to money and human rights issues. However, the rest of the world seems to still be tearing itself apart while the Americans' blend; sure there's a few racial slurrs ... but America is one of the least racial places on this planet. Think about how mirraculous it is that 50 states work independently, and 50 states work together at the same time. One currency for all 50 states, but different banking policies (but still very similar). There is the un-offical language of english which unites all 50 States ... yet, Utah is not waging war on New Mexico because the Morrmons want more territory; rather, a citizen from Utah can move to New Mexico and start a church --- live in peace & worship in their way.

Answer 2

I'm stumped. I've racked my brain...or is it wracked??....what with all the bad news....is there any other kind ...you guys come across as a bunch of religious nuts who are totally sucked in by your own propaganda and amazed that everyone else is not! I mean, 'We do not torture'...but shouldn't waterboarding be okay because...9/11. That's YOUR president...YOUR First Man.

Then there's the three strikes laws where you end up warehousing your own people for as little as stealing four cookies or a slice of pizza or possession of milligrams of illegal substances and your own supreme court doesn't have the common sense to get you out of this stupidity.

You had Clinton sympathising with the elected leader of Haiti while the CIA is stabbing him in the back. Speaking of that ...have you never heard of Chile or Guatemala? Plus, you hate communist Cuba but you love communist China and nobody is supposed to notice this? You were the ones fighting hardest for NAFTA but then you are the first ones to disregard it any time you feel like it.

Black slavery, Native Indian genocide, bombing civilians all the while shouting, "Freedom, freedom, freedom!!" The best I can say about you guys is that your probably not much worse than most, and probably better than some. This is not a reason to brag and it doesn't say much for the world as a whole.

Answer 3

Being a dual nationale`would indicate, where I am presently would be my choice at the moment..although I do spend time in both countries.

It remains the country of opportunity and attracts many to come here to improve their life. There will always be malcontents in any country.. we just seem to have them in abundance here. Most of what is being thrown out there in the past 5 years is anger over losing an election..but when the supreme court had to make the determination of what one of the candidates was attempting was not only amoral, ilegal as well as unconstitutional, we are fortunate that type of person did not win the election. This was not a conservative court either, yet had 7 vote for the decision.

Answer 4

Answer 5

I think we are just fine!
I've traveled the world, seen many great places and met plenty of nice people; but will always come home to the USA.
I'm an American by choice, not just by birth.
