Why doesn't the U.S. join the Commonwealth of Nations?

Answer 1

Because we are a nation of individuals. We believe in capitalism on a personal level, not an international one. Why do you think so many Americans want us to pull out of the United Nations?
Same reason.
What has the world done for us except spite us? It seems that the USA is always doing for the world...

Answer 2

I second T's answer.

And add:
The Declaration of Independence.
The Revolutionary War.

It's bad enough we are still part of the UN and that the creation of Federal Reserve has destroyed a once prosperous nation.

“If this mischievous financial policy, which has its origin in the North American Republic, shall become indurated down to a fixture, then that government will furnish its own money without cost. It will pay off its debts and be without debt. It will have all the money necessary to carry on its commerce. It will become prosperous without precedent in the history of the world. The brains and the wealth of all countries will go to North America. That government MUST be DESTROYED or it will destroy every monarchy on the globe.”
- from The London Times editorial regarding Americas attempts to make the creation of money a free Constitutional concern
