    Also, overall, I agreed with Wills `rant` that America isn't the greatest country. This wasn't an Unamerican rant, it was a plea and desire to become what the country is capable of being. This was a speech by someone who loves his country so much he`s no longer willing to stay silent(as he had up until that point) while we settle into mediocrity and for the most part dont even know it. The facts quoted are true, too. I also enjoyed how the story came full circle when the `sorority girl` applied for an internship and Will told her America can again be great `because of you.`

    Jim Halpert or Jim Harper? This Tumblr is excellent! Harper or Halpert?
    Anti-intellectualism has been a constant thread winding its way through our political and cultural life, nurtured by the false notion that democracy means that 'my ignorance is just as good as your knowledge.' - Isaac Asimov

    I was thinking of the immortal words of Socrates, who said, "... I drank what?"
