Agreed. I did not know he is French. That explains a lot. He is smart, does his homework. The most aggravating thing about him is the stereotyping of ALL Americans into the most despicable of all people. Yes, he has some good points about us generally, but his condemnations are too broad, not discriminate, and betray an apparent arrogance which is most distasteful to me. I still follow him, but which he would go home where he might find someone he can respect.
