Content: The media in the US perpetuate the myth of the American Dream to its citizens so that they believe that socialism is a very bad thing that has never worked ( although it has worked very well in many Western and Northern European countries but Europe is an Allie of the US so they cannot do anything about that ). The US deep state do everything they can to prevent any kind of socialism or distibution of wealth to happen anywhere in the world, just look at Cuba and Nicaragua and Venezuela, and they use the CIA and military to overthrow democratically elected governments in South America and Asia and the Middle East such as Mossadegh in Iran who was a pro western leader who wanted to spread democracy throughout the Middle East but who also wanted to nationalize the oil industry. The CIA organised a successful coup which overthrew Mossadegh and installed the Shah of Iran a tyrannical dictator to keep the oil supply flowing for American business. The Shah was deposed in 1979 by a popular revolution and replaced by the Ayatullah Khomeini to create the world’s only theocracy. Ever since Iran has been a thorn in the side of the USA and was part of G W Bush’s axis of evil for daring to go against US global hegemony. A US war on Iran is still a possibility if the sanctions and efforts to stage manage regime change are not successful. So yeah, most American politicians are centrist. Mike Brant

Wonderful question! Challenging to answer, too. First, humans are complex, so they can be centrist in one regard and very extremist in another.
