American exceptionalism is just a reaction to the inability to understand global complexities. Most people who expound on the wonders of exceptionalism are searching for simplistic sources of comfort and clarity but in most cases they are just showing how stunning ignorant they are.Leading by example, leading the world, providing a paradigm for excellence and hope.
Of course...."providing a paradigm" and then doing nothing to make it happen as if giving a speech is all there is to it. And then blame the ensuing chaos on somebody else, anybody else. I didn't vote for a president "of the world". I voted for a president who believes in American exceptionalism and the American culture as the superior way of life over all else. We will be safe again, we will be wealthy again, we will be inspired again, and we will be GREAT again. Sorry you don't believe in America anymore if you ever did. I believe you'd be happier in France...why don't you move there or is being a hypocrite enjoying the freedom and security of America while running her down more your style?
