Ok, let me do a little explaining, I think the way I expressed myself was a little off.

My post was mainly in response to the implication that the word American conveys vulgarity for many people. I'm trying to say that most Americans should not be seen as detestable. All across the world people have the same moral values. Just because someone lives in the United States is no reason to not like them. I do believe that the USA is the sole world power and somewhat of a role model, but I mean this in a merely political way, not personal. Our government has combined the best parts of past governments to come up with what seems to be the most successful in history, but I in no way believe that the US is superior culturally.

Frankly, I think that the US is judged too much by our foreign policy, and most people don't want us intervening politically, but this is no reason to shun Americans personally.

Hopefully this clears up my seemingly brash former post.
