Proud To Be An American

Proud To Be An American

This can be an understatement considering all of the bad media with PRESIDENT TRUMP. I am over it. America has a bunch of idiots, what makes him different. America has a lot of good people to balance out not so cool people.

There is no war on our grounds. We are accepting to all people. We can and will pull together in the time of need. Don't get me wrong we have some systematic issues, especially against black minorities BUT with the right leadership this can change. America's conflict is like a Thanksgiving dinner when family is together and you have that one family member who acts like a butt. Basically there is one in every family. Family loves each other but will disagree on many things but in the time of need they got each other.

I like this following write up by( it best describes why I am also proud) New York Times best-selling author and Shark Tank entrepreneur Michael Levin runs BusinessGhost.com, a national book ghostwriting firm.

I’m proud to be an American because we are not too proud as a society to acknowledge our numerous, perhaps endless, flaws. But somehow we keep lurching forward toward something better. We tell the ugly truth about ourselves, our communities, and our past -- not to tear down, but to find a way to build. The scar tissue that forms over the wounds we salve is the strongest tissue that exists. We should really call our flag the Scars and Stripes.
We Americans tend to sit patiently when our foreign guests remind us of our various national embarrassments, past and present. Our real response, however, is the same as what the young Muhammad Ali told Soviet “journalists” probing him for his views on racism in America: “We’ve got our best people working on it.”In the United States, I’d like to believe, “our best people” means pretty much all of us. There’s hardly a soul in this nation not engaged with the struggle to make something better—whether that something is a family, a community, a law, a belief about others, a job, a group deprived of its rights, or the country as a whole. Let the Europeans, and the rest of the world, criticize us all they want.Their words mean nothing.Our national thirst for self-criticism, unslaked from our earliest days, keeps making us better and better and better.

I’m proud to be an American not just because of what we have accomplished, but because of our never-ending desire to make right our wrongs instead of hiding them, denying them, or wishing them away.We may have settled a continent, but as a nation, we never settle for less.
