Is this all there is?

If so, I doubt whether Mexicans and/or Pueto Ricans will be a problem.

Have heard that a disconcerting number of students in the USA cannnot find Iraq on the map. ummthinks, have no idea whether Australian students can find Iraq, Syria, Afghanistan or Iran on a map, much less tell me something about the history of each Nation.

That's definitely the globe as perceived by George II.

a poignant statement by that child! wiser than the entire republican administration!

It should be 'we are alone'

mm, am not sure what the 'originator' of this pic actually meant, but if that's all that is left, it would get awfully crowded, heh.

I think the original statement is great. By showing America alone on the planet it shows the utter absurdity of the idea that we are alone. What an unfamiliar and frightening world, just floating there in the middle of ocean! And the statement beneath simply reminds of the truth - we are NOT alone. this is NOT the way the world looks. I see it as a sophisticated admonition to the child's elders, and find it quite encouraging.
