    Can you clarify when exactly America was great originally? I hear all this nostalgia but no definitive time.

    Excellent question. One for which I cannot provide a quantifiable answer, but can qualify.

    America's greatness is an idea. America is where the ideas of individual sovereignty and constrained government flourished. America didn't create those ideas, but America gave them their horsepower.

    Here's something you might like: from discussions we have had in the past, I have gathered that you might think that religion is kinda nonsense. Well, the freedom with which you can believe that grew the most out of America and the ideas that encapsulate Americanism.

    America is the Renaissance on steroids. The Renaissance is where the European aristocracy brought back the classic Greeks. Some small bits of western Europe incorporated the Renaissance into the world of the non-aristocracy. America grabbed that and sprinted with it. So much of what we take for granted today came because of how America changed things.

    That is not to say that America was the only mover. It was (is) not. It was (is) the vanguard and the chief force for progress.
