I would say MOST do not.
They don’t teach this in school anymore because the idea of “American Exceptionalism” has been distorted as racist and “nationalism” seems to be a dirty word that is immediately distorted to mean “WHITE nationalism” when the point of exceptionalism is not to highlight that American *people* are better than other people in the world, but that the concept of AMERICA as a place to find freedom—life, liberty, the pursuit of happiness—is exceptional! People all over the world recognize our great country as this land of opportunity. Opportunity to build a better life for their children and grandchildren is literally why they come to the United States of America. 
Are things perfect for all Americans? No, of course not. But we all need to check our American privilege because no matter what your situation is inside our borders, you are better off than 95% of the world’s population.[/quote]
American Exceptionalism is a racist and a nationalist practice and still very much alive! You are embarrassingly uneducated. And just like so many stupid people you have no idea how stupid you really are. [/quote]

Off to the re-education camps with them.  [/quote]
