American Exceptionalism Simply Prevents America from being Truly Exceptional

Please read and share: http://stupidpartymathvmyth.com/1/post/2016/10/american-exceptionalism-simply-prevents-america-truly-exceptional.html

"This blog is little more than a tribute to Michael Moore (a documentary maker who has had so many important things to say) He uses humor to paint a truly bleak picture of the epic consequences of blind parochialism. He tries to wrap himself in the flag of optimism, but that is more a contrived testament to the fact that Americans can not bear to accept that they can learn anything from anyone outside their borders. “God bless America,” must mean that God is personally vested in America–rather odd, since it would be difficult to find a country further removed from the Holy Lands."
