I don't mean to brag, but a lot of Euros laugh when we say we're the best country in the world. Okay then, who can match our industrial might? If we never joined WW2, the Germans might've taken over Russia and Britain. It's funny. We spend more money on our military than all other countries in the world, yet our booming economy (even though it's low right now) is unmatched. We're the third largest nation in the world, behind Russia, which is in shambles, no offense to the Russians, and Canada. We have way more people than Canada. We are one of the most populated nations in the world. Right now, India and China have the two largest populations. Most of the people there (especially the Indians) would rather in America than any other place. Way more people try to immigrate to the US then any other country by far. Does that say something? Our constitution has been going strong for 226 years. The only other major democracies before us was Greece and Rome. Well, in Greece and Rome still the leader of the country was mostly brought down through the generations from father to son I believe. But those to civs aren't around today, and I'm talking about the greatest country today. Europeans always complain about our government, but who is the leader in democracy today? All the European countries just followed our lead. And also, though Europe has its own music, most teens from Europe I talk to say the same thing-they mostly listen to American music (though most British teens seem to listen to British music). Though Britain has always been one of the rock n roll powerhouses, it was Americans who invented it. And guess who invented jazz? Americans. Euro jazzers will never be as good at it as Americans like Miles Davis, Charlie Parker, John Coltrane, and others like them. I highly respect Europeans and I don't like them any less than Americans, but there's no place I'd rather live than America.

Like it or not Euros, we're the best country in the world
"The first man who, having fenced off a plot of land, thought of saying, 'This is mine' and found people simple enough to believe him was the real founder of civil society. How many crimes, wars, murders, how many miseries and horrors might the human race had been spared by the one who, upon pulling up the stakes or filling in the ditch, had shouted to his fellow men: 'Beware of listening to this imposter; you are lost if you forget the fruits of the earth belong to all and that the earth belongs to no one." - Jean-Jacques RousseauTags: None

Yeah.
We got more nukes, too.

there's nothing wrong with only having 30 million people in a country larger than europe (i think) though...

don't make an ass of yourself.
The President was decided by the supreme court. The latest recount had Bush at only a 66 vote lead and it was getting smaller.
