Don't know, Brian, about the American spirit/way of life; I tend to be more pessimistic about the future; many cultures combined to make America what she is/was, but the core was the West/North European immigrants and their descendants. Everyone who came here (excluding those brought against their will as slaves) wanted to be American and were quickly assimilated (by the second or third generation) into the existing culture. No longer true; we are increasingly "balkanized", and too many of the current immigrants want to bring their culture with them and just live here/be a citizen, but still be hispanic, middle eastern, african, etc........I don't know how old you are, but you may live to see the day when people like you (and who have your values) are no longer in the majority.
