I was brought up believing Americans were above evil... ie torture...invading other nations.... I found out it was all a lie... I have tried to have magnanimity in my life...but my nation looks and acts much like the fascist state of pre-war Germany in the 30's. Ron Paul supporters may appear to be advocating the higher road but with immigration... I believe they look just like every anti-immigration mob from anywhere... How you treat the least person is how one should be judged as a nation...
