I understand your point as well.  And you have every right to feel that
way.  The beauty is that no one holds a monopoly on the truth.  You make
your best efforts to ensure America is way you want it to be and I will
make my best efforts to make American the way I want it to be.  And as long
as no one hurts each other, it's generally a good thing.

I've lived in several parts of the world: Asia, Europe, Middle East and
America.  When I was attending college many of my peers would romanticize
the rest of the world and pine to move to Europe especially.  I would
quickly tell them I do recommend they travel; but American is the best
place in the world to live.  I still believe that.
