American exceptionalism is exceptional! Isn't it odd that none of numerous presidential aspirants have any desire to talk about our exceptional American society in any realistic fashion? Weird, dude. Sanders probably comes the closest to hinting around reality, mostly in economics, but Sanders is a 100% establishment centrist, so he's not likely to be any resembling a radical crusader against societal violence and police abuses and whatnot.
That political reality doesn't change anything, though. America is an insanely violent place, where children and minorities face daily state terrorism in so many frightening ways which do not at all apply to the vast majority of white people. Unfortunately, those privileged white people are mostly not too fucking concerned with truth justice or the American way. Terrorizing school children and racist police murder will continue to be as least as popular as NASCAR with the exceptional American teabaggers and Fox "News" viewers and their masters. And until we get rid of the guns and disarm the local police, nothing is going to change.
