Too nationalist? So what is the right amount then?
As an observer outside the US, why do I keep getting a sneaking suspicion that some on this list identifying themselves with "labour" or "the working class", still believe that America has some superior civilising mission and a duty to sort out the rest of us? Looks to me like a new brand of humanitarian social chauvinism.
