The USA still has the strongest economy of any nation and the highest GDP in the world.
Please do some reasearch first:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_GDP_(nominal) The EU clearly wins.
You also have the highest government debt:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Government_debt Hurray!
We also export more technology and culture than any other country,

http://www.nationmaster.com/graph/eco_exp_hig_tec-economy-exports-high-technology <-- You're not even close to being the country with the most technology export.
we nearly 300 embassies around the world,
Good job, considering there are only 192 countries in the world, and the fact that you only can have one embassy per country. If you meant embassies + consulates, then that's not a big deal. Most countries have that many embassies + consulates. If you didn't: American educational system at its best.
the most military strength,
That is not a positive thing...
we produce nearly half of the world's food,
Nope:
http://top5ofanything.com/index.php?h=6fd77eaewe're the only country to have put a man on the moon,
I give you that one. Though Soviet was the first country to put an object on the moon, the first country to send a man to space, and the first country to send any animal to space and the first country to send a satelite to space. So basically Soviet won everything except that man to the moon. Which is the most important one, I must admit.
and our colleges and universities are irrefutably the best in the world
I'd say the UK is just as good as the US. And the fact that you'll spend the rest of your life paying off your student loan after attending an American university is certainly not possitive. Europe got free universities in most countries.
Despite being only spoken officially by 4 countries, English is the lingua franca in the western world solely because of the USA
You know who invented
English? England did.
We're responsible for nearly every advance in the field of computers, warfare, engineering, and medicine in the last 5 decades.
Computers and electronics: Japan is giving you good competition.
Warfare: Not a good thing. If it was, Germany would most certainly be the best country of the world. Just think of all the awesome inventions they made during the 40's: Jet planes, rockets, radar, cyclone-b gas...
Engineering: Germany has loads of engineering as well. Just think of automobile production.
And the USA is the only 1st world country to have never lost a single war
Korea, Vietnam, Afghanistan, Iraq... You didn't really win any of those, did you? You just sent your troops over there, forgeted up the countries even more, got thousands of your soldiers killed and then went home again. Good job.
Oh and by the way: you had to have help by France to win the Revolutionary War... FRANCE!!!!
