There's a difference in what being American means to ME and what it actually means right now.
Right now it means surveillance, constant skirmishes with an inferior foe, ignoring debt, ignoring real problems, always playing politics, and never solving problems.
To ME being an American means self reliance but also being there for your neighbor, it means liberty, it means freedom, it means personal responsibility. It means though I may be different than my neighbors we stand together when it comes to each other's rights. And it SHOULD mean that as little government as possible is needed for our success.
I find it a hollow word. I don't identify with it at all.
Most bad government has grown out of too much government. Thomas Jefferson
Being American means you rule the world.
Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.
America is a business.
