Sadly, this provides a very skewed view of a very complex nation.
Most individual Americans I have met are just like anyone else I've met from around the world.

Well Said. And unfortunately all Americans are judged accordingly as a result. And, on the flip side a lot of us Americans judge people from other countries similarly.
