I'm Australian but went to college in America in the late 80s. I can barely believe where America politically is these days. Sure America was always a bit of a basket case. I was there during Regan's second term and watched the 87 campaign season. It was bonkers by my standards. But this stuff is something else. Its like America has completely forgotten what made America such a fantastic nation. I studied engineering but a bunch of my friends were pre-law and they dragged me into many of their discussions. So I got an odd education in the US Constitution. These days (and I have said this a lot in recent years) I believe the US Constitution is one of humanities finest achievements. Unlike Australia who inherited most of their constitution from the British, America started with a clean sheet and threw of a lot of stuff. Tt was fresh daring and brilliant. SADLY, it has been inherited by a pack of clowns with almost NO RESPECT for what it has. I used to be stunned and at times embarrassed by how well every American understood their nation because they'd all done CIVICS in high school. I was stunned to find George Buch de-funded it, because these days I want to see Australia have a similar class (but an Australian version) taught to every high school. I've seen the value it delivered and can now see the damage NOT having such a program has done. I really do want to see America back at its best because with the shear size of the US Economy the rest of the world will struggle to deal with issues like climate change and that's just one issue we have to deal with. There's also 3rd world poverty which is the source of the immigration problem the Right complain about. If we all stopped supporting dictators and helped those countries develop then there wouldn't be a refugee crisis.
