    I am a Southerner and I don’t think our eating habits are that bad. I happen to love grits and boiled peanuts. I also don’t mind sweet tea. I am sorry if you cannot accept that this country does not require all of its citizens to like the same thing. Mabye you should go back to the West where they don’t serve sweet tea, grits, boiled peanuts and barbecue everywhere you look. That’s my opinion of your question – seeing as everyone is entitled to their own.

    I used to babysit for a Down Syndrome boy. He was great. I think he was aware that he was different because when we would go somewhere and people would stare at him, he would scare them and laugh about it. He didn’t let it upset him, and he was only 12 at the time. He had a great sense of humor and did well in school. I really do think he understood he was different but didn’t let it be a disability for him.

    Yes, if you are going to be proud to be American, don’t contradict yourself and stick another nationality in there with it. I am American with Irish and Scandanavian background. I am sure that some of the ‘African-Americans’ have African blood from a really long time ago, but have they ever stopped to think about The Bahamas, they are black. What about Indonesia? There are more places in this world that are predominately black than Africa. Come on people, get a grip and just be proud to be AMERICAN.
