Why do you love America?

Question

I think about the opportunity it has afforded me, its allowed me to pursue my goals and dreams, and of course its rich history and natural beauty. What are your thoughts?

Answer 1

How can anyone not love America. Look at all the cultures we celebrate. Look at the history of this country, the casts offs and criminals from other countries building it from nothing to it's greatness of today. People who came here with nothing more than the clothes on their backs and the hope of something better. Look at our cities, Boston with its rich colonial history, New York with its hustle bustle world, Atlanta has come a long way since the big fire...I could go on and on. This country has beauty and abundance and we surly are blessed. The song "America the beautiful" says it all. From sea to shining sea.

Answer 2

I love America because of the freedoms we have. I love America because of the Rights we have. No where else on Earth gives its citizens the freedoms , privledges and rights that America gives us. Here you can speak out without the fear of imprisonment for your opinions. At least you could before the whole Patriot Act thing went into play.

Answer 3

Of all people, I think Alice Cooper put it best in his song "I love America" on his Da Da album in the 70's. It's all the freedoms and the expressions of freedom. The most ridiculous things that for some resason wouldn't be tolerated. In fact Alice Cooper or any other artists wouldn't be tolerated in a lot of countries.

My Pocket Fisherman and my Crazy Glue

I love my jeans and I love my hair
I love a real tight skirt and a real nice pair
And on the fourth of July, I love the rockets' red glare
I love America

I watch the A-Team every Tuesday night
I graduated, but I ain't to bright
I love Detroit 'cause I was born to fight
I love America

I love the Tigers but I hate the Mets
I ride my Hog but I race my Vette
I gotta job, but hell I'm still in debt
I love America

I love my bar and I love my truck
I'd do most anything to make a buck
I love a waitress who loves to... flirt!
They're the best kind
I love America

Well, I gotta go now
I love America
Bye Bye, I tell you what though, I really do love it
You ain't going to catch me at no mayday rally
