Is This America ?!

I think one of the memes you convey best is still having the ability as Americans to partake and enjoy a multitude of high class endeavors. Unfortunately, the sheep are easily satiated by much baser things. But you still plug along and try to feed them good grass anyway.; 11 October, 2013 21:17

I remember once going to Bullock's (I think) in downtown Los Angeles with two of my friends and everyone was either brown or black or whatever. I heard one well dressed hispanic woman say to her friend, 'Where are all the Americans?'

We still have the illusion of the blonde, blue eyed All-American. One of my co-workers (Asian) once described someone as All-American and that person turned out to be a blue-eyed blonde.

The melting pot which was originally a mixture of Europeans is now a stew of the world. I wonder what in fifty years what All-American will mean?; 12 October, 2013 14:46
