Seriously, anything that polarizes people by their political views so much that they'd call one of their countryman an "enemy", is not healthy.

Oh I agree completely! The uncompromising schism between political philosophies, if it continues, may be the downfall of our country.
There seems to be very few Americans in my country these days.
There are whole lot of Democratic-Americans, Republican-Americans, Liberal-Americans, and Conservative-Americans in my country, but not a lot of Americans. Probably a lot of (insert exclusive philosophy)- Americans I missed too. And that's sad.
Anyone remember the poem "The Hyphen". Originally it was about race and religion. Perhaps it should be updated to include politics?
