Your use of the phrase "the American experiment" is pretentious, especially when you call it broken.

We're a country and people with fundamental, albeit continually debated, beliefs. We have a governance system with which people can engage directly and peacefully to affect almost any aspect of their lives. Hence, the saying "thing's are broken" is entirely empty. The magic of America is that you can shape the system; it's a matter of persistence.

Things are not perfect, but we're riding on a solid foundation and I wouldn't bet against that.
