Most Americans I know are great people.

America as a country ? ... well its probably good to compare the basic roots of German National Socialism with the tenets of the American right ...

German Nazism was characterized by:
- a very strong appeal to patriotism and national pride (tea party)
- an almost paranoid fear of communism (sound familiar?)
- religious intolerance (do not be Sikh or Muslim in the US)
- a strong anti-liberal stance (tea party again)
- racism ( enough said)
