Yes, it's that pomp, circumstance ............ and tradition that makes all of us so different from the Brits. Many of them still believe in the classed society. After all of that we are pretty similar. But I learned the hard way that is huge.

You did not follow us, just inadvertently developed along the same lines we did, for similar reasons. Same is true in Canada and Israel. Sooner or later people will understand this, and deliver you folks more credit. We probably represent a new method of birthing a new people so to speak. Either that, or it's the original method, and was forgotten long ago. There is a reason for our nations being so similar, and it is not because anybody followed anyone. I will make a note to myself to go off the next time I hear somebody speak the mistaken analogy. Fair enough?

Time to start being citizens of Earth in my opinion.

I'm rooting for Obama to get arrested and hauled before the Hague while in Africa. That would make my year.
