Not sure about his numbers, but it's true that when you look at American politics from a global perspective, liberals are really pretty centrist.

Or from an American perspective the international community is farther left.

Regardless, the international perspective isn't relevant here. We're talking about American politics and whether there are more right wing kooks here than leftist ones. The question is whether there has been a tendency for greater numbers of Americans to shift to one extreme or another. The view the international community has of our liberals' "liberalness" isn't really connected to whether the extremes of the political spectrum are represented disproportionately on one side or another in the U.S. The American norm is the standard for his statement, not the international one.
