100 People Messing Up America really makes you look at America and that it isn't the perfect place everyone envisions it to be, well how Americans view it. Other countries actually see it for what it is. We are so critical and listen to people who don't have any clue about what is going on.
Celebrities have such a huge influence on many people's views, so many of us listen to everything they say, even if it is idiotic or goes against what we already believe.
There are other people who jump on the bandwagon of what is popular. Jesse Jackson did that with Martin Luther King's civil rights movement, but he didn't keep on preaching what the invisionary King had in mind, no he warped it into what he wanted. But since he said he associated himself with King, people listened.
There are a lot of things that are wrong with us and we need to realize and know what is right and wrong and not listen to all the crap out there.
Although Goldberg is only giving one side, I agree with him. Some of the things that were in the book I had already heard.
