A better list to shine the right light on things would be a list of countries that are better off democratically, finacially, population wise, imports and exports and even respected more, because of the good ole USA vs Russia.

America's sacrifice is marked by a cross on the graves of the men we left behind in Europe and outside Washington, DC

Just color USA blue and Russia red.

This would actually be a proposition, rather than a look back. If the US and Russia both spent as much time and effort furthering the progress of the rest of the world as they spend posturing and bickering with the rest of the world, we'd all be better off. What's been done is done and can't be changed, why don't we move forward?
