Well Im black British, but mixed race because my mother is Welsh. And I would say there are Americans and there are Americans. George Bush is American, Seinfeld is American, but then again so is Talib Kweli. I find those Americans that travel in Europe and accross the rest of the continent of America to be idiots, complete buffons. But some people Ive met where my aunties live in LA and New Jersey? Quite clued up, pretty educated. Seems to me like Bushs Americans are content to cream the crop of their European Roots while living richly of the exploitative nature with which they treat the more Southern parts of their continent
