I'm not sure Americans are hesitant to do this again - to fight another war, because it looked to them like a courageous and terrific endeavor.
People didn't have the political guts to stand up against an American war.
And we broadcast tapes sent to us from Americans against the war. These were most effective I believe.
I got interested in the American culture war back in 2004, and it's one of the only growth stocks I've ever invested in.
Since the civil war in Laos was resumed in earnest in 1963, American participation has been veiled in secrecy.
The American escalation of the war in Laos provoked a response by the Communist forces, which now control more of Laos than ever before.
There is no excitement anywhere in the world, short of war, to match the excitement of the American presidential campaign.
Be thankful you're an American as we treat foreigners a lot worse.
Foolish names and foolish faces often appear in public places.
You shouldn't want to be like everyone else. Then you wouldn't be like you.
In the large cities that received new Americans, there flowered a golden age of restaurants, manned by the available talent from abroad and fueled by the restless wealth of the newly rich.

I was taught from a young age that many people would treat me as a second-class citizen because I was African-American and because I was female.
Times change. Cable news and the Internet alone have transformed the way outreach to the American people can be accomplished.
I'd like to state that Spike Lee is not saying that African American culture is just for black people alone to enjoy and cherish. Culture is for everybody.
It was an amazing adventure, it was my dream to be in an American musical... I really hope you are going to love what you are going to see.
I was able to do To Sleep with Anger, a very powerful film about African Americans, their spirituality, and the things that happened within a small community and a family.
There are people still in the Republican Party that I believe practice the communication of anger, of disappointment, of regret, of pain, of sorrow, of suffering. That's not what the American people want to hear.
Unless and until Barack Obama addresses the full depth of Americans' anger with his full arsenal of policy smarts and political gifts, his presidency and, worse, our economy will be paralyzed.
Take the time to discover how African-Americans have had a great impact on this country. In science, education, literature, art, and politics.
American art, like America, must wait and live a while longer.
