    John,<br>
    <br>
    Do you mean you do not think US is exceptional / it is wrong to
    believe that the US is exceptional<br>
    or<br>
    Do you mean that there is no belief prevalent about US
    exceptionalism<br>
    <br>
    Can you elaborate on this remark<br>
    <br>
    thanks,<br>
