In recent posts I have been addressing the question “What makes America great?” The collective results of my analysis can be summed up roughly as follows.<\/p>\n
All empty bragging aside, the truly great things about America are three related aspirational principles: The principle of embodying and celebrating diversity, the principle of wishing to support a spirit and practice of equality between people, and the principle of wishing not to exclude people from these benefits merely because they have the “wrong” ethnic or cultural identity.<\/p>\n
In short, there are three things that make America great: Diversity, Equality, and Inclusiveness. This can be expressed by an acronym: DEIMAG: Diversity, Equality and Inclusiveness Make America Great.<\/p>\n
