Enjoyed reading the rest of the thread, between packing for my next trip. Hey, LYY, thanks for taking up the cudgel on my behalf.

Despite some of the popular misconceptions on this site, most Americans are not myrmidons. We are neither far to the left or right - but we are a right of center country. Perhaps the problem for some of you is that we aren't terribly keen on relinquishing our national identity and independence. Ditto our Bill of Rights. Nor do we wish to get sucked into the bureaucratic maw of an EU/UN style form of governance, whereby the sovereignty of individual countries is eroded.

I haven't been brainwashed by anyone. I was an adult when I made my decision to leave England. America was and remains a better fit for me.

Although our demise has often been predicted, I remain optimistic about my country and its endeavors.
