I hate to be the cynic, this was written by an American or someone kissing ass big time. No one outside of the US feels this way. Hell, most Americans don't feel this way. I'm calling bullshit.

Of course the Americans don't feel this way, they have no frame in which they can see or think of such a thing.

"To understand the nature of the people one must be a prince, and to understand the nature of the prince, one must be of the people." -Niccolo Machiavelli

Basically speaking, an American can't accurately assess their country against the backdrop of others.

I've traveled extensively from N. America to India. I've lived in Europe and I've never met anyone who speaks in such glowing terms about the US. If anything they dislike America. Some of it's deserved, some not. I can only speak to my own first hand experience.
