If you peeled back the layers of the onion and got to the core, we should be the strongest of allies. We have more in common with Russia than any other nation other than our British/UK group of countries.

My wife is Russian. Her grandfather came here from Russia in 1914 and worked in US coal mines. My daughter learned to speak fluent Russian and got an aerospace engineer degree to (ironically) work in deep Ops on reverse engineering Russia missile technology for US black Ops. She often tells me..."why the hell are we fighting like two cousins (US and Russia) in a neighborhood of people who are not family".

US and Russia could rule the world together, as cousins (metaphorically). Yet, somehow, there are those who do not want that to occur.

Do you folks know just how many of Russian blood that came to America to help build this country?
