The USA is unique from the rest of the world (the Old World) in that it is based on an idea, not genetics. We are the first start-up country. We are comprised of the greatest minds in the world from all genetic backgrounds. Rep. Amash is of Palestinian and Syrian descent, and he is more American than most notorious politicians with whom I am familiar. America is based on an idea, and he embodies it. Old World people from Europe and Asia have no idea what they're talking about WRT the USA. Classifying the USA in European terms (i.e. "center-right") makes no sense in this context, and we do not use such terms for a reason. Humanity deserves at least one country where individual freedom is a revered principle and people do not emphasize outcomes other than technical innovation. Not every country needs to operate in the same way (nor every US state).
