Seemingly the beginning of the great films narrated by Clifton Ganus Jr. which describes yes, why America is so much better than anyone else. This is more of a history lesson than anything, explaining how America developed it's use of private enterprise and property. It's not as spit-forming as the later films, but I guess it has to start somewhere.
