The last quote in the last few seconds of this film was spot-on target. I would have used a couple 4 letter words however.

The American Constitution is a peace of Art... Follow it and the country will flourish more than ever... Now I know what Vaclav Klaus meant by the geniality of The American Constitution...

The United States once was and is mostly build from the perspective of individualism... But now things has changed, USA no longer follows the idea that individuals are superior,, NOW IT IS THE FEDERAL STATE THAT IS SUPERIOR,,, And USA today is formed from Collectivist ideas...

This is the scary

Peter, nice article debunking the UC Berkeley student protests. They are selfish brats looking to get more of a broke state's money for themselves. They have absolutely no moral authority or legal either. So they lie to themselves and cloak themselves in the cape of Selma civil rights protesters. Shameful -- as if all protesters are equal. The KKK protests too. The public is against these brat students. I hope the police have the courage to beat them silly, if necessary.

Obama and Gore and the rest are really intelligent and idealistic, but their pre-assumptions are wrong, so the principle of "Purgamentum init, exit purgamentum" (garbage in, garbage out) applies.
