Well, I could debate whether or not everyone in the United States is actually free. Lets say we are, is not our freedoms and what we believe in contradicting if we go into another country and force them to be exactly like we are? Then is this other country actually free? Is this not what the British, English, French, and Spanish were doing to our "fathers" trying to force them to follow their rules, dictating to us their laws, and trying to force their religion etc.

All I'm saying wouldn't you rather talk about differences, learn about differences, be able to come to compromises from good communication skills and wanting to do this on your own rather than be forced? I know I would be more willing to learn something or follow some new ideas if I weren't forced into them.

Not all the facts about the US and it's dealings with other nations is available for the public, and I said in my speech the public is too busy working in order to survive they don't have the time to research all the information to make good decisions on what is going on and what is the best thing to do. So, I feel education on both behalfs is key. Being friendly and positive I believe you told me comes off better than negativity and someone who looks and seems unfriendly.
