American Excpetionalism

It's the anti-social, "I don't know what's up with them" kind of leadership that we saw under President Bush.

Frankly, I would love to see how their brains work when it comes to interacting with others, especially considering how destructive it really is to our relations and our demonstrable relative position in the world.  I think it's important for the United States to be respected and liked above all things in the world.  Leadership itself comes from our initiative and our polite, courteous and calculated encouragement of others.

I don't understand how people still think that American exceptionalism is still something that's worth campaigning on and using in the rest of the world.  We're not an exception to anything, especially the consequences of our interactions with the rest of the world.

And it's only a product of the brains of others, that we are, actually, and "exception" in the world, relative to everyone and everything else.

Think about it.

Cause I don't think that the people who are in charge really are.

I honestly think they're just running the program that is determined by their brain's hardware/software, just like everyone else's.

And it's proving to be an incredibly caustic influence on their own worlds, as well as for others' worlds.

Silly brains.

That, is how they fail.

Silly brains.
