Hello, I'd like to know exactly what is the American experiment? I want to know if it's the concept of democracy applied on an entire nation, or just democracy itself, or the idea of a colony's self-government... Because I have absolutely no idea what it is. I've tried looking for an explanation using Google but people just seem to expect others what it is.

PS: I only moved to the US a few years ago, so that might be why I don't know what it is.

It is the whole country.
The first nation to identify its government as subservient to the people, not the other way around.
It is a mixing of cultures and people. A lot of other countries have criticized the US for its bigotry and ethnic strife, but none of them have the diversity of the US. Now that some of them are having to deal with large numbers of immigrants they are not handling it well.
A country where the ideal is equal opportunity and steps are taken to achieve it. Not achieved yet and may never be, but it is an ideal to strive for.
Plenty to criticize about the US, and I often do, but it is still on the balance a positive influence in the world.

An illuminati project that is nearing completion as we enter a Fascist New World Order in the near future.It is a very detailed and fascinating story.Sadly,you will not find it in government school textbooks.You might find a few google videos on it.Type in Ralph Epperson or Fritz Springmeier or illuminati.There are a few dozen good books out there.None I have come from mainstream bookstores.

The American experiment is to shove all kinds of different people together and tell them we are all the same when any idiot can clearly see different and see how many times we have to repeat it before they start saying they believe it.
