You are a little Island for God's sake.

Indeed. And the common language of the U.S. is English (apart from those who speak Spanish, of course).

I suggest you get some historical perspective, unfashionable though it is for many Americans.

Try reading "Empire: How Britain made the Modern World" by Niall Ferguson. He's Herzog Professor of Financial History at the Stern School of Business, New York University, Senior Fellow of the Hoover Institution, Stanford University, Palo Alto, California, and Senior Research Fellow, Jesus College, Oxford. He's now at Harvard.

Let a little light in.
