Scotland

Magical land of rugged highlands, misty castles, white sandy beaches, verdant green landscapes, endless stone walls, dotted with sheep and age old cottages to the north of England. With its meteor showers and northern lights, the night sky in Scotland is truely beautiful. Through the ages, it has produced some of the most brillant writers, philosophers, scientists, inventors, and actors in the world.

Scotland is distinct from England, as it has its own history, literature, legal system, educational system, building style, and heros.

Sean Connery, David Tennant, and Karen Gillan are some of the finest actors to come from Scotland in recent times.

John Adams

Under rated and under appreciated near great president between George Washington and Thomas Jefferson. Adams was an honest and brillant president who established the American Navy and resisted attempts by partisians to push the young Republic into an unnecessary war. Putting integrity over politics, Adams kept many of the previous administrations appointments to the cabinet and other government offices. This proved to be a mistake as many of these officials mainted their loyality to Alexander Hamiltion and worked to undermine the Adams administration from with in. When Jefferson defeated Adams, in the election of 1800, it marked a peaceful transition of power. Something unheard of in most of the world at the time.

In recent years, historians have revised their view of John Adams.

Barrack Obama

A pagan god worshiped by the far left of the Democratic party and young naive students with little experience in the real world.

Barrack Obama has failed the nation and his support base in all ways and on all levels. Under his watch, the economy has gone from bad to worse due to corporate bailouts and Obamacare. Wars continue in Iraq and Afganistan almost three years after he said would remove the U.S. military presence.

Karen Gillan

Scottish actress best known for playing the character Amy Pond in the Nu Doctor Who series. Unlike many modern day actresses she is beautiful, talented, intelligent, and down to earth. She also challenges the sterotype that gingers are fugly.

Karen Gillan is the best thing to come out of Scotland in ages.

British Empire

The only empire in history to spread ideas of freedom, democracy, the parliamentary system of government, and rule of law across the globe. The Empire ended slavery in many parts of Africa, widow burning in India, female infantacide, and suppressed the Thugee cult.

Many of the roads, bridges, canals, schools, and railroads in third world countries were built by the British Empire in the 19th and 20th centuries. Even Gandhi praised the British Empire.
