Charles, I was bred [by my very ''odd' parents (by usual standards)] to not ever consider myself as an ''American'', but rather as a citizen of the Planet Earth]....that said, we Planet Earth Patriots don't give a flying shit about country or government. Yes, there ARE governments and there ARE countries, but these are very artificial constructs from the past and now from the Oligarchy of the Planet in order to control and contain. It is IMO we either all survive and advance; or we all perish and fail. I personally do NOT believe in big government or big countries [in physical size or political power]. Small is beautiful and the sooner we get back to something approaching a unified Planetary tribalism, the better.
