the problem is not that they dont WANT to participate, but rather, that they CANT.....they couldnt process the information....
So please, stop bashing the Americans, they are after all our cousins, brothers and sisters.

Perhaps you should try topics that are a bit more common place? One can have very intelligent conversations on topics as commonplace as sports, or music...things of that nature.
As for your contention that "most" Americans are idiots? Nope. Sorry, have to disagree. Some? Surely. Most? Not so much.
