What is an American?

What is an American? Is an American white or black? Is an American English, French, German, Russian, African, East-European, or Asian? An American is everyone who has comes to this land of freedom in pursuit of happiness, prosperity, religious freedom, and safety. We are farmers, construction workers, soldiers, lawyers, politicians, musicians, bankers, miners, etc. America is not just a giant nation with vast plains, rivers, beautiful beaches, enormous mountains, and frozen tundras, it is a land where whatever you put your heart into or whatever you seek to achieve then you can make it happen. Some people ere critical that are government is too soft or too hardheaded, some say we are disrespectful of different ideas or beliefs, but take those people to any other country and they will begin to miss the freedoms and oppurtunities that they take for granted every day in America. Some people complain that elections are skewed, take them to Iran or the Democratic Republic of the Congo where elections are not even held, and if they are they are very corrupt. People may view this country in any manner they please but I will continue to see it as my true home that I will never stop loving and I will do anything to protect.

Live long and prosper,
Alexander the Great
