No, I am an American. I think there are all kinds of Americans just like there are all kinds of people in other nations. There are criminals here, but also good people who work hard and love their families. There are tough people and soft people. There are loud people and soft-spoken people. Basically we are just like everyone else...some good and some bad. I like to think mostly good. I hope that helps you.

Bush did not win by what is called popular vote. We have something call electorial College votes. The people we voted into office gets the finally say who is The next Pres. here in the USA. It has been the electorial votes that have gotten Bush in office.
Very few Americans are like Bush. I didn't vote for him and find it offense that you would say what does it say about Americans for voting him in.
That is such a generalization that isn't even funny. Bush is an A$$. Americans have feelings too. Just because some thing they are more superior, don't mean we don't have feelings.
I do feel America as a country is more superior than other countries. We have freedom, to live and believe how we want to. We have choices for education, and life. Being a Woman, I have many opportunties here, that I wouldn't have any where else in the world. I can choose to get married, have children, or have a career. Even all three if I choose to and you know what, I have made that choice. I have all three. I couldn't do that in another country, so yes I feel America is the best country in the world.

Ma'am,
I know you feel this person was being generalized; I would have taken the same route, but I feel he was just being innocent by bringing this question to the MyLot table; Look, you and I both know that all of the Americans in this country are not like him; however, I know how you are feeling about the President and all because I'm sure more than half the country are going along with you. present company included; As for them Electorial College votes; if you want my opinion, they should have gotten rid or redid the rules in 2000; and after the mess in 2004,they should have had the good sense to call it a day and say bye bye; Perhaps they will after the next elections because this thing surely didn't work out right. I believe in fairness and them elections just weren't fair. Peace.

Not true! Some of us are ignorant, self-serving, heartless cowgirls. Do I sense some anti-Bush sentiment?

No, most Americans are not like George Bush. We have many feelings, and a lot of people disagree with a great many things that he does. I didn't vote for him, and there are a lot of people around here who didn't either.

Let me break this down for you. NO, I am not like George W.Bush; he comes from a family of privilege, was given breaks and what not, whereas I came from a family loaded with love, and short on privilege; on top of that, I am African American; yes, some of us feel superior but at the same time, a lot of us don't feel that what he's doing is right either; whereas, you have those who do. It's a whole gamut of different people and nationalities and differences here;

Coolcat,
even after the Iraq War. Look, folks are dying from this war and it's ridiculous. which is why Congress is trying to bring them home hopefully starting in October if the bill passes and overrules the President.

I'm really hoping you are joking in some manner. No we are not all like W. Most people don't stand up for what is right and are more worried about what people will think of them than what they should do. Maybe we should all be more like Bush, and be willing to be unpopular if it means doing what is right.

There is this difference between me and Bush. We both like to spend time clearing brush on our property. But I do it without a chainsaw, power tools and a camera crew. The US covers a large area and you will find any type of person you could think of, but most places are known for being friendly and helpful.
