They have an extremely talented group of middle-distance runners (3:29 1500m NR by Stewy McSweyn and 3:48 mile NR also by McSweyn), distance runners (Mottram's 12:55 5000), the high jump in Brandon Starc with a 2.36m NR, Watt was a long jumper over 8.50, Clark once ran a 44.3, Patrick Johnson with a 9.93 100m, don't talk about stuff you know absolutely *nothing* about.

If you notice all the Americans put their greatest distance on the last straight. That's because they run relays in the states at every level and they know how to manage their efficiency. Notice how the other countries try and make up ground too quickly then fade at the end.
