Decent Essays
America is a place where people came for new beginnings and a brighter future. It is a place where there is freedom and patriotism. The America I believe in has its flaws, but in most ways, I think we should have much thanks. Sometimes you do not know how much you have until you lose it.

The Founding Fathers had one thing that will prove to be a key constituent in many historical events: they had hope.…
