Loving one's country and being successful in one's country are two different things.
My case that America is not the greatest country on earth...

If we lived by the system the constitution was first created. I would be a slave in America...

You could be MY slave!!!
But you are right.
Some of the ammendments are quite important.
With all due respect, your case is pretty lame. Your first link is all right, but limited in scope and lacking much comparison to other countries. Your second link can be ignored as merely a comedic compilation of ignorami who are not representative of average Americans. Your third link employs a bait-and-switch fallacy, pretending that the celebrated American "freedom" is supposed to mean that few people end up prison, rather than the fact that our Constitution protects certain activities from legislation.
Besides, this is the wrong approach in the first place: bringing up some problems with America doesn't prove anything about its standing until you point to other countries that have fewer problems overall. (You're supposed to be arguing that America as a whole is not the greatest country, not just that America is surpassed by some other countries in some areas.)
If you could choose a country in which to live, where would you go?
Lord have mercy, I hope it never does. In such a case, I think that there would be an unpleasant or disastrous destiny for the world and many countries would avenge America.
THE LAND OF OPPORTUNITY!!!
See that could never happen here, its even in our constitution that e.g. a Muslim is not allowed to be a prime minister.

its nothing to worry about. Many great civilizations such as the Eqyptians and Romans have gone the course of reaching its full potential and falling into darkness and ruins. Its inevitable but we probably won't live to see it....unless North Korea and Iran stop messing with them bombs...

I really hate the states rights versus federal rights argument. What about the individual?
Ha...i would bed the most powerful slave owner to gain the most advantage...haha...so u better hope you are one...lol
Well, I don't believe in anarchy. I believe there needs to be some sort of government. It is the lesser of the two evils in my opinion. (State vs Federal)
I am very well aware of that. However there is a correlation, it shows that those who 'fail' are more inclined to disslike their country.
Haha theres also Oprah Winfrey!
But he is a great symbol yes, I would think that he does a hell of a good job in making others hopeful and appreciative too.That makes sense! Here it is native born as well although specifically Muslims are not allowed.
America is a melting pot...sometimes its hot and crazy and sometimes its cold and and bitter...law of polarity people
Yes but haven't you learned ? Take the good with bad, and smile when you're sad
Don't get me wrong! I agree with it too.
Anti religion laws as to prime minister seem crazy to me (although it will probably be a while before an openly Muslim president is elected in the US as well. Probably wouldn't sit right with a number of voters)
I don't know but I was comparing to Sweden, where a Muslim prime minister is not allowed (we don't have a president).
But those are not the same to what America is to the world in this time. I think America is a hopeful to the world, either loved or hated.
