Thats not dumb, thats ignorance. I do not think that Americans as a whole are dumb. I think the words would be more like ignorant, lazy greedy selfish,and the granddaddy of them all.....Entitled. All that said though I think there are some incredible and amazing thinkers all around us. Evferybody has something to bring to the table some of us though do not know that we have anything to bring to the table my take. Thanks G
