Essayist Dinesh D'Souza, believes the reason we are hated by so many is because we're so good. D'Sounza point is hard to argue with, seeing as how you witness this in everyday life. Sometimes when someone is overly perfect, it's irritating. I think D' Sounza makes a good point when he talks about America's "exceptionalism & universalism." I as well as many Americans are grateful for being able to live in the U.S. We have wonderful opportunity's. When D'Sounza talks about how our country is built on individuals shaping their own lives and making our own destiny's, this is a strong statement and is true. However i think that in other countries this just may not be as valued to individuals. Some people don't like to make their own decisions, and it is easier for them to be a follower as oppose to their own leader of their destiny.
When D'Sounza talks about us learning to appreciate our differences, this could not be anymore true. I think that is a huge aspect of life that needs o be worked on by many people, politically, religiously, physically, and mentally. Everyone is so different, looks different, raised different, believes different. Their is no right or wrong and it will forever be an ongoing debate.
