NO!  I am NOT talking about that hip little country ditty that so many play at their gatherings…now that I have said that I cannot get that twangy little thing out of my head….we hear so many Americans claim it….but what do they mean?  OK, this is a subjective term……and for that reason I would like to hear from my readers on what it means……I will give my thoughts and I will await yours…..

First of all….I think it is just a slogan or an idea that is appealing…..I want to hear what it is that people are proud of……..is it the education system….the health system……the way we treat each other…..or maybe it is our politics……could it be the politicians?  Please just what are you proud of here in the US?  Is it …just because?  Is it our military?

Seriously….I want to hear what it that we are proud of here ……..and yes….it could well be a post in the future……..OK, personally, I am proud of the rights that we each have….even though there are some that want to take those rights away….I am proud of the founders for coming up with a system that, in theory is an excellent system, but since the founding it has become bastardized to look less and less like the system the fathers intended……..I am proud that we each have a choice in our lives, even though some choices are not popular with different sects……

Please…tell me…what is it about this country that makes one proud to be an American?
