I love my country and feel blessed to have been born here. After Bin Laden was killed we wittnessed how the whole country could come together and celebrate as one. We were united - all together. I was reminded of the days that followed 9/11 and how everyone was ready to defend eachother against these outside forces that threatened our way of life. The sense of pride that we feel for our country, The United States of America, can be so overwhelming at times it can bring tears into the eyes of out most harden soldiers.
The outside forces, that dared to threaten our way of life, we relentlessly hunted for ten years - with no thought of how much it would cost or what sacrifices had to be made. It had to be done - to defend our Lady Liberty.
Our beloved country and our precious way of life is being threathened again but now in a more subtle way. We are being torn apart, piece by piece and this time the government cannot send troops over to do our fighting for us. We as Americans have got to recognize the real problem with the economy, we need to understand that with a weak economy there will be less troops to be called upon in our time of need. We have got to take charge of our lives again and bring wealth and jobs back to the United States. We have got to make a deliberate effort in our choices of all products offered to us and choose Made in America first.
I have a dream that storefronts reopen, that schools will be able to pay teachers their worth, that all our children can afford to go to college. I have a dream that crime is reduced, home values go up and neighborhoods are revived. I have a dream that I can make all the American people - no matter what their political preference - understand the power that they possess when they stand united.
Spread the word - Love your country and it will love you back - Choose American Made
God Bless America
