I like this song because I kind of feel the same way. I think the point is that the US was built on some great ideas. Every man is created equal and what not. But, unfortunatly, these things don't seem to mean anything. They didn't even mean anything when they first said them. It's like America wants to be the perfect nation, but they can't stop being bigots and over-all assholes to actually make it happen. Of course, I'm generalizing, but that's how I see it, anyway.
