I hope we (the US) can clean up our act so we can go back to having at least some credibility in the world again. (other than just being rich and having a lot of guns) I'd love for us to be worthy of the praise we get from some places. I can't say that I've been particularly "proud" to say that I'm an American when I started travelling abroad a few years ago. Hard for people to miss though, I sound like a stereotypical Midwestern radio announcer. Well, maybe except for that one very plastered German guy who kept yelling at us for being English at Oktoberfest.

"at least some credibility in the world again." Might have to go back about 80 years.
