The USA's Biggest Disadvantage
Think about yourselves, how many groups do you belong to?
I am a male, heterosexual, Canadian, gamer, subsimmer, student etc Now, here is the problem. In places like north korea, everyone belongs to the same groups(korean, atheist, commie) therefore, the North Korean government does not have to deal with a conflict of interest when making decisions therefore, Kim Jiong Il could nuke mecca and there will be no civil unrest in North Korea However, in the US the citizens are too diverse. therefore, American politicians would have to consider the interests of different groups when making decisions. Obama can not nuke mecca without the Islamic Americans causing trouble in america Therefore, this is a big disadvantage because Obama can't always do what is good for america My idea: Extreme Patriotism Love your country more than anything more than your religion, sexuality, race etc If obama nuked mecca for no reason, you oppose him but if he DID IT FOR AMERICA!!!!! you support him |

 You know, if the USA's biggest disadvantage is that we're not an oppressive fascistic dicatorship, then I think I can live with that. Certainly more than I'd be willing to live with the alternative. |

I love this idea. Well, more the idea of how it would be proposed and enacted.
I think a State of the Union quoting the OP verbatim would be hi-larious, with Obama's usual socratic delivery on the last part.

 I think the OP has the right idea: Throw out (or kill) everybody who doesn't think exactly like us. Of course that doesn't deal with the question of "who exactly is 'us'?" When I was a teenager I was told it was "UnAmerican" to grow your hair longer that 1/2", protest anything the government did, or support "them" in their quest for civil equality. So let's support America, because blind patriotism is more important than what America stood for in the first place, and get rid of anyone who is not "us". On the other hand, the OP seems to be just a little tongue-in-cheek. At least I hope so.

This is a great idea! The first thing we should do then is annex Canada.

I agree with the OP completely. Install Kim Jong Il as Great Leader of the Democratic People's Republic of the United States of America
