Went to some leaving drinks last night for a Project Manager who is going back to school. To LSE no less. We went to a place called Bar Vinyl, 'London's original DJ bar'.
One of our planners, an Italian who grew up in Milan, said something interesting. "I'm sorry but my only experience of America was San Francisco. I felt so free. I have never felt so free in all my life."
That's what America has always represented to other people around the world. The place where they can get away from the social or governmental or financial circumstances that restrict them.
America is often painted as presiding over the rest of the world. But, in it's own way, America really belongs to the rest of the world.
