Additional myths

There are four additional myths, from which America suffers.

1. Exceptionalism - America is exempt from laws and is entitled to do whatever it wants
2. Particularism - The US has been anointed by God for special attention and care
3. Entitlement - The US is entitled to rule the world
4. Isolationism - Nothing can harm America
