I sometimes question this 'America is great' sentiment. As some of the founders were saying 'all men are created equal', we had slaves and continued having them even after the civil war. Lots of free labor for hundreds of years. A country that's great wouldn't tolerate that. This hatred and fear of Blacks lives on today in red states where repubs are formulating all kinds of policies to make it very hard for Blacks to vote. A country that's great wouldn't have the homeless and poverty stricken people we have while a handful of billionaires have more wealth than millions of ordinary citizens.
