This is the same old fallacious comparison we've talked about before.
You need to compare all of Africa to the US.

Nah since we only have one president. If we had 50 presidents we could compare against 50 countries. Maybe do governors and presidents?
Still doesnt chamge the fact that what you posted is at best historically ignorant and at worst super racist.
Ok, I finally figured out how toi put this into something understandable...
The US is like NO country on the planet. It's a NEW thing, a new idea, w/e.
The US is made up of 50 little "countries" each with their own set of rules, that work together as a group, under an overriding set of rules, the Constitution.
Personally, I think it's a great idea. It prevent tribal/country/state war for the most part, but let's each state do things their way.
If Africa, for example, would do something similar, they would be a world power by now.
