Everyone has the opportunity to improve their life.

Except for the people who aren't white, Christian, male and rich?

I was boon poor, brown, and not a christian. I do very well now, thank you very much.

USA has democratic government

Florida, 2001? Two-party system favoured by state bias and funding? Electoral college? Politically coloured judges?

Don't we have a new black prez? Time to get over it.

, best technology

Probably.

, affordable living standards,

Except medical care?

My insurance is free from my employer. So are millions of other americans. Last I checked, and can go to school and get my job.

best hospitals are in the USA.

Yes, but the majority have little access to them and the ones that do have so many lifestyle-caused health problems it negates the better treatment and still makes you an averagely-healthy country.

My mother got cancer, got an appointment at the Mayo Clinic. Was simple (and she is cancer free now)

, Hollywood movies are in the USA.

90% of the films made by them are "stupid" ones aimed at young children (animated fantasy rubbish) or lifestyle ones with no content aimed at young women.

USA is the best in the world at most sports.

You mean, the sports they chose to play? Your "World Series" only has one country in it! Your major sports (Basketball, Ice Hockey, American Football, Baseball) are barely if ever played outside of the US/Canada. In 'real' disciplines, other countries are better. If you adjust for population, the UK and Australia are better than you in the Olympics.

USA is the world leading nation

This statement has zero content.

We have the most powerful Military, and when our economy when to hell, so did the worlds. Japan collapse a few years back, and the world didn't even notice. That's what he means. 

There may be bad things about the USA but all in all it is the best country in the world.

Outsiders can see a lot more things wrong with your country than

No, they just never see the good. All you hear about is the shit that goes on here.

Barack Obama is now our President

But you elected, and then re-elected Bush first. The Republicans had to be utterly disgraced and have a weak candidate just for the Democrats to barely get 50% of the populat vote.

and we are blessed by God.

Well we are blessed by Thor, Zeus and Wotan.

USA will recover to its former glory

When? The Cold War era? When the US was taking out democratic governments and replacing them with dictatorships?

and overcome the financial crisis

Through protectionism and corporate welfare?

and lead the world into the future.

Feel free to give me your reasons to support my pro USA stance.
