You've answered that very well thanks!
If you are judging a nation collectively, based on a limited interaction, you are shortsighted and have a limited or warped understanding of what America has been, and is. Why is America the greatest nation? Because despite our seeming inability to mind our business at times, America has collectively set the standards of global industrialization, commerce and inguinuity. America has been a safe haven for individuals of many races and creeds for hundreds or years. America has laid the tools at the feet of millions of immigrants seeking safe harbor, prosperity and a chance at freedom through liberty, and our constitutional principles.
Despite what twisted tales me be told, the blood of Americans has been spilled across vast stretches of the earth, fighting for the freedoms of others. America has never turned her back and has always lent a hand to those is need, whether militarily or monetarily.
Sure we have our defects, sure Americans aren't perfect, sure the system is flawed on may different levels. Yet when push comes to shove, you would be hard pressed to find an American that will not stand up and fight for what is right, whether here or abroad.
Freedom, opportunity, history. The apologist can get bent. If you even have to question it, stay home.
texas is the greatest state is what matters to me.
It would be un-American to say it's not the best. So I won't. America is the BEST!
I have lots of family in Canada and I visit at least once a year. Great place to visit, I would not live there though.
I didn't judge America, I asked why American's believe America is the greatest country on the face of the earth. I very specifically stated that it was a generalization and that I wanted people to show me the other side of America. The intellectual side not the crazy redneck side that is portrayed by the media.
You answered my question very well thank you! :rockon:
It's hard to see someone elses point of view when your head is so far up your own ass. ****ing canadians always got something to say. Eat your ketchup potato chips and stfu.
Point taken, but I didn't intend the opening sentence to be specifically aimed at you. More or less meant for individuals that judge based on limited interaction.
Who the f*** eats ketchup chips… They're nasty as f***…

Lol I was hoping you would see the humor in that. I used to room with some hockey players in college that were canadian. They would talk smack on america all the time. I just learned to give it right back. I'm not going to try and justify my patriotism to someone who will never get it. It's all in good fun though, no hate towards canada.:rockon:
Beautifully put. :beer:
And to the op,

I think honestly the reason he has met the bad apples is because places like New York and Jersey are so close to him and those people tend to be a bit more ornery compared to the south where life is slower.
It's frenchie and I hate those damn Quebec bastards too!!!

I think its because we can choose to destroy a whole country and rebuild it to our likings?
Plus NHRA is pretty bad ass. Show me a car that has been copied in china has 7,000 HP and runs 3 second 1/4 mile times (1000 ft for the nerds)
