Or shall we accept that other people's cultures, opinions, views are just as important as ours.

I think that this is a "lesser of evils" answer. America may not have all of the answers, and my not do it right, but we are the only coutnry in the world who states very clearly in our constitution that "all men are created equal" we are the only nation to fight a revolutionary war to prove we believe it and the only nation to fight a civil war to prove it again. So, If I had to choose one view for all, I'd choose ours.
HOWEVER, part of what makes America great IS our acceptance of others views, cultures, opinions and beliefs. Just because we don't agree with them does not mean we dont respect their right to have them. It does not mean they are wrong. It just means they are different from our own.
Many other views do not distinguish between "different" and "right or wrong" So, again I would say Yes, America's "all men (and women) are created equal and have the right to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness" views is the correct way for all the world.
But that's MY VIEW... which may be different, but is not wrong.

I don't think you can really say anybody has a "correct" view of the world. All countries, cultures, nationalities, etc are biased to a certain degree. That's just human nature.

while i became a youthful toddler and now, i did no longer care approximately race. i became born in Fayetteville, NC on feet. Bragg a militia base, so each physique became right now cool with each physique and by particular circumstances of the year the Greeks might come or the English people. Even off base Fayetteville or Raeford hardly had something race pushed happening, yet when I moved to Charlotte, NC each little thing grew to alter into extraordinary. If Whites acted ghetto they have been referred to as a Wigger, etc. and that i became like it is stupid and that i nevertheless think of that.

The average American doesn't know very much about other countries(for starters, their locations on a map)...so I'm not sure his 'view' is to be trusted.

I think the answer to why Americans think that their views are right is because our views are the only ones we know. We are not a sophistacated country and most people just accept what is handed to them and not researching other viewpoints.

Lol of course the Americans view of the world will not be correct. We are heavily influenced by our ridiculous media.

Depends on whether you are an ideologue (Bush Admin) or a pragmatist (Clinton Admin).
