You do realise the Americans you see on Jerry Springer are not a true representation of America don't you? Im getting bored of all the yank bashing on cp lately. I don't mind a bit of American or French or Aussie bashing as long as it's humourous. I do agree with the second part of your post though. Outside the states Obama is rated one of the best ever. In the states they see him as one of the worst.

Certainly cannot prove it by the news I see. Most Americans supported the Invasion of Iraq, Afghanistan, Libya. They support the failed War on Drugs. They do not seem to understand that their rage against those the perpetrated 9/11 has the same effect in other countries when you bomb them. They do not realize that they do not really have a democracy, and that democracy nor Representative democracy are far from perfect forms of government. They do not realize that Black Lives Matter comes about because minorities are quite often discriminated against and that this is actually a result of a serious issue with democracy which is the rule of the majority over the minority. They think they are the land of the free when they country only comes in 11th. They blame Putin and Russia for the current crisis when it was American stupidity (American will pound on any major power that attempts to get a toe hold in the Americas), and that really Russia could have been a close and very useful ally to the US. They support Israel unilaterally despite it being one of the most despicable countries in the world with its treatment of the Palestinians (the Zionist Jews also reported to be heavily responsible for the Armenian Genocide). I could go on and on about American arrogance, stupidity, and Crimes Against Humanity.

I'm sure many of the younger members have no idea what it is. I'm so old....

Some of us not-so-young members have no idea either.

As English matrons were wont to say: come back with your pith helmet, or under it
If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.
--Winston Churchill
