Name One Good Thing about America
I have to admit, I’m against the administration and against the war. I make no pretense about those facts and I’m also one of the biggest liberals on the block. I did six years in the Army got an honorable discharge. I work everyday, pay my taxes and try to conduct myself as a law abiding citizen of the United States. All this is despite the fact that my step-father, a good man won the Bronze Star in WWII in the Pacific and couldn’t vote in his home because of the color of his skin. I still view America as a land of opportunity where anything can happen.
I’m asking that you take the time and list at least one good thing about the United States.

Great things about America - there are so many to choose from. Here are a few quick ones:
- The Constitution - particularly the Preamble.
- The Gettysburg Address
- Elections even in the middle of wars
- Our beautiful land
- The fact that we are the world's melting pot
- The freedom to allow ordinary people to do extraordinary things
The fourteenth amendment.
The nineteenth amendment.
A couple of more kudos for America (to go along with so many other great ones above):
- The ability to have 50 different states try different things to see what works and what doesn't
- Having the greatest military in the world - in addition, it is made up solely of volunteers
- We've produced more things than any country in the world
- We've fed more people than any country in the world (ourselves and countless others)
- We've aided more people than any other country
- We defend not only ourselves but so many others through our military ability
- When disaster strikes anywhere in the globe - we are there helping out
Good timimg, Brian!
