Michael Barone writes about what he calls the "blame America first crowd." These are the US citizens who think the US is to blame for whatever is going wrong in the world.
Blaming the US for all evil is a crock on the face of it. There is plenty of nastiness in the world and we have no monopoly thereon. To the contrary, Barone recalls Winston Churchill's speech pointing out that most of the good things that have happened in the modern world have happened because one or more English-speaking nation made it so.
Barone puts most of the blame for this geopolitical self-loathing on our universities.
