how narrow minded the americans are when it comes to accepting that anything that is not american could be superior
That's a bit broad in scope, isn't it? I guess you didn't know that most Americans buy and drive foreign automobiles? In fact, Alan Greenspan recently pointed out the ENORMOUS trade deficit because Americans aren't buying as many products built and produced in the USA. We seem to like foreign imports just fine... almost to our detriment.
I wonder why the Department of Homeland Security purchased a rather large fleet of Eurocopter ships for Customs and Immigration (border patrol)? No, I don't think you can claim that we have an overtion to foreign products at all. If fact, it may even surprise you that we are actually capable of making an informed decision, based on merit and other factors, including economic benefit for our GNP.
But shucks, ya'll, I'm just an ignorant red-neck that can't possibly understand how to make the right decision.
