Status of US of America from the Eyes of a Foreigner  

Change in everything is natural and us of america is not an exception.

We have seen the great and most admired trumpet player Louis Armstrong humiliated by racial comments.
We have seen the many great jazz singers like Nat King Cole insulted by racial behaviour of the 'whites'.
We have seen how 'blacks' were forbidden in 'hotels' and had to sleep in their cars overnight.

Yet, America had and has great men and women of moral strength to welcome a change in american society.
Interracial dating and marriage are on the rise.
Old prejudices are breaking down.
The new American is free from 'old' thoughts in assessing people.

And therefore the 'new' american is a worthy example of role model for the world from HUMAN RIGHTS to DEMOCRACY.

not the 'old' though.
