Since you don't sound like an American, your opinion does not mean much.
You can think what you want but Americans are, in fact, better.
Go back into your little pathetic life and leave America alone.

While our country (United States of America), maybe be run (at the moment) by seeming half wits not all Americans fall into that classification.
Never judge a whole country by only a few, or for that matter, all people's actions by the actions of a few.
Yes! A lot of Americans have a weight problem but not all do. The news media paints that picture. Hear about the bad and the good gets dropped by the wayside so to speak.
There are "cool" Americans just as there are "cool" people in other countries. I have no idea what you mean by pants unless it refers to clothing and if so -yes, a lot of gals wear pants in this country. So! What difference does that make.
My country is not perfect by any means, but if you take the time and meet the folks that are hard working and caring people you will get a much better idea of what we, as a people, are all about.

No the chances of you being the only ignorant and prejudiced person on this Earth are truly slim.
And I, for one happen to be very slim and intelligent. I would ask of your intellectual level but I can see from your question that your answer wont be too promising so I'll save you the embarassment and take it upon myself to evaluate your questionable genius...And not to put a burden on your ego or anything but you didn't just get charged up by some computer nerd but by the leading cheerleader and homecoming queen & soon to be model and spokesperson for a thriving magazine company. Maybe if you and a few friends get together you will come to the conclusion in just a few short hours that I happen to be an American.
By the way...The way in which you chose to use the word "there" in your question was grammatically incorrect you might wanna check that.

Well you have touched a nerve.Suppose you mean in general because the guy who lives off smoothies and prattles on all night on the telly selly channel looks quite thin .How about the ones who spend all night on the tread mills and exercise equipment -now come on they are really trying to get in
shape.THey are not fat however they could be stupid so you could be half right
American presidents no matter what horrors they are commenting on always have a smirk on their faces.In fact even in times of great sadness they manage to look amused so there must be some great national joke that not everyone is in on.Perhaps we would laugh ,if only we knew what it was.

Just because their country is represented by a half wit doesn't mean the rest of them are. And as for being fat- yes they are known to be the most obese nation but once again, that doesn't mean ALL Americans are.

I am sure you are not the only person who thinks all Americans are fat & stupid. However, with such a large population, I think branding them all as fat & stupid is in itself a stupid question.
I would also like to point out that "there comedy is pants", should read "their comedy is pants".
Maybe it is not only Americans who are stupid.........

Everyone is entitled to their own opinion, but keep in mind that obesity is no longer an American only problem. It is prevalent everywhere, with exception of countries where there is no food. As far as the stupidity issue goes, there are a vast majority of us US citizens that are quite intelligent. We simply keep our mouths shut. It is better to keep your mouth closed and be thought a fool than to open your mouth and leave no doubt. Think about it....

Americans could stand to have a better diet, eating more healthy, less fast foods, and eating to satisfy hunger..not until full. Americans could get more active.
Stupid is going a bit too far. We do need to educate our minds more, rather than just sitting here, true.
Great minds discuss ideas
Average minds discuss events
Small minds discuss people.

I am Italian and I see more over weight people in Italy (its all the pasta I tell you!). And contrary to popular belief, Americans seem to know qutie allot about the rest of the world.
I love Americans in general. Do not hate them, especially if you do not know any of them.

So every American is fat and stupid, huh? Then my parents must have smuggled me in from somewhere because I have an IQ of 132 and am at a perfectly healthy weight for me height.

No, I don't consider myself stupid and fat. And for your information, a half-wit president doesn't represent the intelligence of the rest of America. If one person represents the entire country then I feel really sorry for yours.
