Gus > the one and only lethal threat to the US as a viable, democratic polity, lies in the growing animosity between Anglos/WASPs and Hispanics --nowhere else

Some, like myself, would say the biggest threat to the US is its own self-righteousness, arrogance and hubris and this is compounded by its religious mythology. Indeed, the US has put itself up a tree of fantasy and the only way it can or will come back to earth is if someone cuts the tree down -- which is why the Americans are so petrified. Under every bed and around every corner lurks a terrorist or a devil out to "get" them.
