Default To non-Americans: How do you view us?

I'm just curious. Its a broad question: what do you think of the United States, what it stands for (pollitically), and how do you view its people and culture?

The rest of the world pretty much hates the general image of America.

Just tell any non-americans that you too hate our government. They'll forget you're an American and love you .

My own two cents on this subject (yes, I'm American) is that this topic is a grenade with the pin pulled. Dangerous.

My opinion exactly, and I said something about it in my original post, but I lost my whole long paragraph to IE shutting off for no reason... I didn't want to write it all over again

i too am a resident in the usa. I stand neutral with our government. As a wise man once said, if you dont like the way someone is doing something, do it yourself. So i just stand neutral.
