It doesn't shock me. America is a big country
or hadn't you noticed?

I noticed when I was there.

I also noyticed that if you're in Texas then what happens in Chicago is
treated as if it's news from somewhere almost off the planet and news
from Europe and Asia is on the lines of 'Hey those kooky/weird/dangerous
people in the funny clothes/haircuts...'

You really shouldn't get your political ideas from elderly Jewish
physicists.

Excerpts:

"...Europe had fallen in love.....Many Europeans don't get it.

They're very confused as to how [Americans] could vote for Obama and
then two years later turn around and vote for a completely different
set of policies......"


As one reader of the above article comments (in part):

"..Americans have always been more independent and individualistic
than Europeans. We have always wanted less government interference. We
have always wanted the freedom to earn our own living and keep what we
make. This goes back to the pioneer days and plays out today with our
entrepreneurs. Like Europe, our elections swing to the left and then
to the right and back again, but our fundamental DNA is different
because our history is so different.."

It takes a week to drive across. A portion of that drive
is boring as hell, the flatlands of the Middle West.
Keeping to the south (California = Arizona = New Mexico
= Texas = Louisiana = Mississippi = Alabama = North
Florida and up the East Caost definitely avoids boredom,
except in a gastronomic sense. To enjoy that trip takes
two weeks, allowing one to stop here and there for a day.

That is a subjectve opinion...having taken a seventeen day car trip this
past August, I did not find the middle western part of the USA boring. We
did not stick to the interstates which by-pass the small and interesting
towns. Places not seen from the interstate highways give you insight as to
what this country is really like. We lived in Kansas for three years we
found it has its own unique flavor. Wyoming,South Dakota and North Dakota
have scenery with long stretches of land and mountains, but certainly not
boring. I loved driving through the wide open spaces with cattle ranches so
large that you could not even see the family home from the highway and the
many times we would see a train pulling a very long line of cars on the
lonely stretch of vastness...took me back to the days of the Old West! Then
we'd come to a plateau or mountain range...a diversified change that made
this trip so interesting. This time we traveled through New Mexico, Arizona,
Nevada, Utah, Wyoming, South Dakota, Kansas, Oklahoma and then back to
Texas.
Living in Texas with family roots in Pennsylvania, we have traveled many
times the different routes on our trips back to Pennsylvania and back,
trying to see a different section of the country each time. Kentucky,
Tennessee and West Virginia...magnificent mountain scenery. Texas, itself,
is 790 miles long and 660 miles wide at its most distant points...covering
267,000 square miles, making it slightly larger than France. We have
mountains, hill country, prairies, desert and Gulf coast with beautiful
beaches along with the lovely piney woodlands of East Texas.



Forced marches are hard. 4000 miles in a week, means
600 miles a day, 10 hours at 60 mph, two drivers switching
every 2 hours.

Not if taken in leisure... stopping after 300-350 miles a day, a good meal,
visit with the locals and a good night's rest. Life is good!!!

Hardly, since you do not live here, you cannot make a fair assessment. We
have excellent communication with what is going on in our country and the
world...As far as kooky/weird/dangerous people...every country, including
mine, has those!

"Europeans have no hope, no future and are done for. They have no idea
that they have surrendered
to a dream that can not exist and that masks the face of death.
Marxism is a rotting corpse that will be burned by islam."

Excerpt from the article:

".Before he was elected to the White House, Barack Obama drew 200,000
ecstatic fans during a 2008 visit to Berlin. Analysts predicted he
would have easily been elected France’s president if he had been a
candidate there..."

So they would have elected a person they did not know, who had no
experience, no history of accomplishments to be their leader. Is it
any wonder that Europe is circling the toilet bowl and about to
disappear down the drain?

Michael Jackson drew large crowds in Europe too. They don’t value
character much, do they?
