It is. Could we force every country in the world to follow our example? Probably not. But even if we could, the question is should we? 

That's a resounding no. We are a great country, but we aren't perfect. We tout our freedoms, but at the same time we laud those who deny basic rights and services as moral heroes. We celebrate the divisive and scorn those who work for unity. We ignore and ostracize those who try to change a system that rewards failure instead of offering a legitimate chance to succeed.

We aren't perfect. We should not seek to enforce that on others until we have improved ourselves.

As far as the immigrant question, I can't say what other countries should do. But ours should.
