I'm proud with reservations - I love this country, and am glad I was fortunate enough to be born here. I can't think of many other countries I'd want to live in (Canada, Australia, Japan)

However, I think we as a nation can do a lot better. I think our voting rates are bad, and as a nation I think we tend to swallow whatever the media publishes without giving it too much of our own thought.

So there's room for improvement, I think - but isn't there anywhere?

btw antonio, whats wrong with being proud of your heritage?


now officially a troll, i guess. used to have a black 96 SE, until it broke down one too many times. now I'm hunting for a motorycle.
