I can tell you what bothers you, deep down; You have a sense that we should bring the 'American Way' to America, first.
Otherwise we are just promoting globalism, communism, radical islam, and fascism -- which is where we find OUR country these days.
You are right...no argument there.

Good point Laz.
But more than anything else, it reminds me of my ex-wife. She had such a poor opinion of herself for such a long time that I tried everything to boost her up -— at my own expense and what did it gain me, a supporting spouse? Hardly, she found someone else and we got a divorce. Two years later I was doing MUCH better and she was back where she was before I boosted up her self-esteem, image... etc.
The lesson I learned there is that it all comes from within, our self-respect, esteem and willingness to better ourselves in the face of adversity.
And now with America... Ever since the end of World War II we have been ‘there’, time after time, trying to boost up other countries. We’ve even taken in their poor and discontented in the effort to boost them up individually and it’s come to this, we’ve drained our strength, expended our ‘treasure’ and beat our heads against the wall over and over. And for what?
We are not stronger than we were, morally or economically, we are ‘tired’ and it’s time to put an end to this foolishness. Lead by example and make our nation the best it can be and as for the rest? ‘Let Allah sort them out’ I’m way past being ‘over it’.
