While there are many similarities between us as in US and them, it is a cultural similarity based on close heritage and nothing else. If you have ever traveled to England, and by England I mean anywhere other than London, then you will see similarity. Going to London is like going to NYC and thinking you've seen America. England and the US have similarities but there is nothing even close to the sameness that you see in some parts of Canada and all of Australia. Hell man! they don't even speak American in England - whatever that is that they speak is very difficult to understand. I don't know what language that is that is spoken in England but I can guarantee it isn't American. When we went to Europe England appeared to be more foreign than did many other countries. We do share common beliefs with England at times and have always depended upon each other in times of need. Once past times of need most of the closeness disappears.
