Wow... and here I thought that being an American meant that I grew up in a country that was founded on accepting new cultures and giving everyone an equal chance to make it in the world.
There are still many Americans that I am proud to call friends and to point towards as examples of who I want to be like when I grow up. These are sad times however, the money grubbers are getting all the attention while the truly creative and giving people seem to go unnoticed.
I can only hope that future leaders of the USA are men of vision that have a plan for moving the country forward rather than bullies who merely react to situations as they get to the point where they can no longer be ignored.

Gullible isn't in the dictionary.
