American Exceptionalism

Are Americans unique? Or is it just propaganda we're fed all our lives? If you were to line up people from many different countries, could you pick out an American? What does East of Eden tell us about the experience of being an American?

Americans are unique but not supirior. I feel that many Americans feel being "unique" makes you supiror and that's where I feel thats not true. Not to say that Americans aren't important. It's just we seem to be very cut of the world like in East in Edan we hypocritical sometimes of other people when infact we do the same thing.
