Another powerful quote?

"America is the greatest of opportunities and the worst of influences." -- George Santayana 


Many things go through my mind when I read this quote. I think of how all the good but then again I think of all the bad. We aren't perfect; nobody is. Many people think that we are evil and have even said we are monstrosities. Can this be true? Can we be one of the worsts influences out there?
