What it Means to be an American Over a hundred years ago our founding fathers created the Declaration of Independence, the Constitution of the United States, and of course our Bill Of Rights. As the years have passed most of us have forgotten what these important documents mean to us. All Of these documents brought freedom, rights, and liberty to all Americans.
Without it, the united States would not know what it is to be an American, but being an American is more than just documents, its pride, honor and gratitude. Brave. En simple word that has so much meaning.
The word brave represents the people of this country, the people who have given their lives to bring us freedom.
Without these brave hearts, we wouldn’t have what have today. Bravery runs deep in America’s roots, all the way back to our founding fathers, founding fathers like Thomas Jefferson, John Adams, and Thomas Paine. It took brave souls to make America heard. It took guts to make the Declaration of Independence, “America the great, America the beautiful” a phrase that is engraved in all American hearts, being an American is more than just a privilege, it’s an honor.
People all over the world wish they were American, because here in America you can be who you want to be. You have torpedo of speech to express your own opinion, freedom of religion, and equality for all, including different sexes, races, religions and status. Its the land filled with opportunities you wouldn’t be able to get anywhere else. America is more than amazing, and I’m proud to be an American, I like showing my appreciation; singing the anthem, saying the pledge, or even raising my flag every morning.
There’s no place like America.
