A potent brand of stubbornness that causes ignorant people to believe they are right, regardless of:
A. Logic and reason.
B. Overwhelming facts.
C. The majority's educated opinion.
Sufferers of the America(n) Complex believe that rather than being the single person who is wrong, everyone else must be wrong. They often feel that others are inferior for not having realized what their delusions have characterized as sensible.

Sufferers of the America(n) Complex believe that rather than being the single person who is wrong, everyone else must be wrong. They often feel that others are inferior for not having realized what their delusions have characterized as sensible.
Many examples of the America Complex are appropriately found in daily American culture and teachings:
"Christopher Columbus discovered America."
"The Wright Brothers were first to fly a plane."
"Global warming is a myth."
"Socialism is like Communism."
"The Bush Administration had nothing to do with plotting 9/11. Power does not corrupt. No one in our government would kill for power."
