Cartoons as a cure for election malaise, huh? I love it!

Hear, hear. I didn’t get to check out the video due to this slow dial-up service, but I’m glad to hear people give the US a boost.

Like you I’ve recently heard many of its better points from a friend who moved here from Communist Romania. Hearing things from her view sure opens the eyes.

At the very least is was nice to hear a positive word in the midst of the election – I always watch more cartoons this time of year to compensate. :)

Jason: I think you are exactly right. I get disillusioned watching the litany of moans on the TV/radio/print news and wonder if there is a link here to low voting numbers. I also redirect our kids from this.

Akemi — I enjoyed your post. Very interesting and enlightening. You’ve shown that the grass isn’t always greener on the other side, no matter what the perception is.

Haha. I am an immigrant from Japan, and I recently wrote a post about this same thing. I'm cool headed and don't think America is great, but it certainly not the worst either. For your amusement: Why I think America Is Still The Country Of Dreams
