Don't like us? No problem.
At the end of the day, you are all American people. The Facebook you use (inb4 edgyfags "LOL -blam!- the system -blam!- Facebook")? American. Google? American. Apple? American. Microsoft? American. Every other thing on the planet except for putting milk into tea? American. You follow our elections (inb4 "I don't"; oh, really? You don't know whether Obama or Romney won?) You watch our movies and television shows. You wear our clothes. You copy our vernacular. You access American websites. You copy our Constitution and our laws. You read our books, ponder our art, use our weapons, drive the car which we invented. The global economy is based on the US Dollar. Our military maintains bases on your
soil. When our President speaks, you listen.
You are ALL American people.

While America is one of the most strongest countries in the world in terms of military and economics, it is weak. This is because of there social infrastructure, some want to return to the idolised ways of a 1950s that never was, some want change at a rate that would never work, not mentioning you despicable arms laws and constitution that's too out of date to apply to the twenty first century. You expect too much from a governing that like many is flawed and corrupt. America is too divided to cope. This is the same in all "great" western powers these days.
