When in conflict, which is more important to preserve...American values or American interests? Why?

  • American interests. What exactly are "American Values"? What I see is a gaggle of noisy geese, each with their own agenda and set of priorities that have nothing to do with what people think or believe. When the landscape is made safe for American interests, then maybe we can figure out what these "values" are about. Probably at one time there was a sense of national identity and character prevalent, but no longer. We are a conglomeration of special interests screaming my way or the highway. Not much value there.
