The centre of the world

Yes, America is the centre of the world. But why then do not even people living in the centre of the world know anything about the centre of the world. Or even beyond the centre?

I guess this is what Obama was talking about when he asked the audience:

Why do Americans basically only speak … English? When you come to Germany, Italy or the Netherlands, the people talk to you in your language. Everybody should learn different languages!

According to this I always find it more than funny when I communicate around the world and in 1 from 100 cases some native English speaking moron tells me “Err, you have a European accent”. Really? Asshole.

Via vizekönigin.
