Why's America more conservative than other Western Nations? Plus party challenge

[ingemann]

It depend on what people mean with conservative. USA as example have much liberal abortion than most countries (interesting fact Spain have more liberal abortion laws than Denmark, it say something about perspective is not always right). Some years a American left winger toured Europe and one of the evils, he brought up was how the Republicans would make it harder to declare bankruptcy, one problem the Republican suggestion was far far more liberal than the rules for bankruptcy in any European country. Also half of western Europe have state churches. So I think the whole USA; Conservative, Europe; Liberal, is a little more complex than many people think.
