Ironically, Bush has a favorable rateing well over 70% in Africa. Nor do I think the Bush administration did anything overly horrible. The Obama admin apparently doesn't either, since most of it is still being done by them as well.


Anyhow, I don't see how thinking the US tries to correct certain aspects of itself makes my statement invalid, unless you refer to my thinking only the US does that. That's fine, though it won't change how I think on that. I still think the US bends over backward compared to other nations, reguarding things of that nature.

My university days were pretty much the same as what Samurai007 mentions. Professors were not only leftest, but blantantly taught that socialism was the best way for America. I argued with them constantly, my days in private schools probably left me with a different idea on national history than those taught in the public schools.

Education should be designed to allow for independant thought and an appreciation of national history. To much of it today is built along the lines of group think.
