Ruinin' our reputation? If we wanna talk about Presidents ruining our reputation let's talk about Clinton.Oh, and CWalker...Excellent post. I agree 100%.
id agree with entertainment and technology... (even though id aruge some of the best films arent american, it does have the biggest entertainment industry)in your rhetorical questions within the medience section, the reason non of the countries are making great developments in the medical world is mainly funding, nothing to do with ability. the countries you mentioned are all poor, mainly due to exploitation by the west, im sure if they had as much funding as america they could make just as many developments.in the creating wealth system, wasnt it america's economy that collapsed thus leading to the rest of the world, thus giving hitler a chance to sezie power in germany.in human achievements, granted achievements were made but this are just put down for all the bad shit america has done. the only reason america put a man on the moon in 1969 was because the soviet union was going to beat themforiegn aid is the less America can do following world war 2 after the fucked up shit they did.I really doubt freedom, i mean thats just bullshit. maybe in some areas like film and tv where they dont actually have a censorship board like other nations. but consider for a moment the years leading up to the Vietnam war. They supported this bloke called Diem as the Democratic South Vietnam right? to stop communism from spreading. But Diem wasnt democratic, he rigged elections, eliminated all political oppenents, placed peasents into Strategic Hamlets or concertration camps to seperate them from communism, surpressed buddhists so much they started burning themselves as america watched with a smile. diem was a dictator, not as extreme as hitler but still a dictator. so the line "Communist Vietnam are among the nefarious states we sought to prevent from increasing their totalitarian control over others" is fuckin bullshit. and this was before all the protesting shit, 3 years before. So tell me America was all about freedom then.and communist north vietnam only seek unification with south vietnam. the communist were gonna allow a election to decide on democracy or communism as the Geneva Conference. but it was the democratic south that knock the elections back. Communist vietnam never wanted to control others. get your facts right. a terriost group started the civil war that america got involved with. get your facts rightas for america liberating nazi germany. i believe if u check ur historical books, though america contributed, the soviet union's red army achieved that task.you cant just consider the positives without noting america's negatives- dropping a nuke on civillians in japan- dropping napalm on vietnam peasents- illegal bombing of cambodia that eventually resulted, not directly but eventually, pol pot coming to power and killing 1.3 million people.- killing of civillians during war. e.g. My Lai Massacre- capital punishment- racism and homophobia in southern states, some states still make homosexuality against the law.- pressing their ideology on any nation they can, believeing that it is the the ideology, instead of just an ideology.- motivating and breeding some of the worst criminals our world has seen.i dont want no beef, this is just why i dont think america isnt all that great, just one view pointif ur going to talk about Presidents ruining your reputation talk about nixon (illegal bombing of cambodia, laos), johnson (for going into vietnam at all), bush (for just being a redneck). clinton is no where as embarrassing as these three.
