Some of them are more well informed than we are, I'm not saying any of them are right or that you should agree, but perhaps take their view into consideration. We are an extremely undereducated nation and looking at things from an outside perspective and understanding how others see us can be beneficial... Just my two cents.

They have no frame of historical reference, no commonality in the unique experience of being an American citizen and therefore nothing of value in opinion about our political system.
They can all STFU. As far as being uneducated, speak for yourself.

There is a drastic difference in being uneducated vs. being undereducated. While foreigners may not have grown up with the American "experience" they still might have a better understanding of our political system and policies than some Americans do, or at least, a different perspective that should be taken into account. I have met people from the UK, Canada, India and Kenya that have a far greater understanding of our language, lifestyles and policies than most Americans. Some of these foreigners are also now American citizens, that's what America is. If you choose to write them off, that's your choice, that's okay. I prefer to compare and contrast between my views, other Americans' views and the views of foreigners.
