Hi Ron, I'm glad to see you vigorously supporting American cultural values, especially free market capitalism and social/intellect freedom. I couldn't agree with you more. Our argument, if any, is over the meaning and practice of multiculturalism. My view is well expressed in Wikipedia under "Opposition to multiculturalism" in the U.S:
"In the United States especially, multiculturalism became associated with political correctness <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Political_correctness> and with the rise of ethnic identity politics<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Identity_politics>. In the 1980s and 1990s many criticisms were expressed, from both the left and right. Criticisms come from a wide variety of perspectives, but predominantly from the perspective of liberal individualism<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liberalism>, from American conservatives <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conservatism>concerned about values, and from a national unity perspective."
