America; Love It Or Leave It

There's a lot to be said about a country made up of so many different cultures, religious beliefs and social differences. Americans are in a cocoon of virtual safety with regard to their civil rights. This isn't to say that there aren't injustices we'd like to see resolved. It simply means that America is a country that acts like it gives a f*ck. For all the complaints made about her, America allows her citizens to vote on who will represent them and their interests. I guess when we're feeling down on our country, our President, our laws, we should take a look abroad. America isn't perfect but it cares to try. Somehow that's what makes our country the richest democracy; a country people die everyday to reach; the land of milk and honey for all. For all our differences we should defend America's reputation for striving to do right by all.

Keep passin' the open windows...

standing ovation.

One of the many reasons why I am grateful to be American is because I know the small spark that comes from me can light up an inferno if I want it to...I can change things for the better here with a little blood sweat and tears...

everybody who isnt American complains about us, but in their heart of hearts they wish they were American.
