Spike Lee at Purdue

Spike Lee was awesome and inspiring. Beautiful man, great talk...even though he tended to ramble at times. He said something quite interesting, however(besied knocking bush and Fema). His statement that the U.S. has come to dominate the world not because of military strength, but because our culture has been so adopted around the world. This is an interesting idea. Perhaps it is cultural politics that determine world power and not military strength?
