May 5, 2012 - You've failed to comprehend his reasoning, which is actually correct. One does not need to be American to listen to some song lyrics and realize that this song isn't as flag-wavingly patriotic as it first sounds.  Much in the same way that Born in the USA is actually a crushingly depressing ode to early 80's decay.

May 5, 2012 - lol. John Mellencamp didnt wrote this song because that, but whatever.But, actually, you are true: the american dream was taken from us, because the government.this is why our country is dying.. a missinterpretation of the constitution.The american dream was about liberty, not wealth.Mellencamp wrote this song because americans were loosing their "american dream"

NightRadio1 Says:

May 5, 2012 - yeah, of course. For people like you, i think everything is "anti-american"(actually, John Mellencamp didnt wrote this song against america, but against those who want to destroy the american dream. Get your facts right kiddo.)

May 5, 2012 - "Didn't write"It makes fun of the 'American Dream'

Bill Benstead Says:

May 8, 2012 - Why can't people stop putting meanings to everything and just enjoy the music.

Polarbullet1 Says:

May 8, 2012 - Yeah, we got problems in this country. No doubt. Love this song though, cause it still celebrates our freedoms despite the challenges. Ain't that America? Rock on John! You are one of the coolest Hoosiers ever!

AfreakinHIPPIE Says:

May 14, 2012 - This song and Born in the USA are patriotic because they celebrate our rights to criticise our government's problems. Ain't that America?

TheChattyxWoman Says:

May 16, 2012 - im not american im english but god i do love this song x

metazoaman Says:

May 18, 2012 - That has always been my argument. The true American asks questions and demands accountability. There is nothing more unpatriotic and anti-American than accepting authority as truth instead of truth as authority.

rohrichjw Says:

May 18, 2012 - Great song. This is a patriotic tune. It tells us that America is more than "home of the free, little pink houses for you and me." And any American who doesn't understand that is an idiot.

compuwise2 Says:

May 19, 2012 - No we cant all become rich and famous rock n roll singers.  I wonder how much JM gave back to the community to help anyone's American dream.

May 26, 2012 - I like your story.  It's true to form. It can be done when you get the gumption to pull up your bootstraps and get going. There still is opportunity out there! And as you've said, not always with a lot of money to start up!
