I will 'thumbs up" everyone who answers with just one fact. DO NOT MENTION ANYTHING ABOUT A POLITICAL PARTY, nor the President, members of congress, etc.! This is not a democrat or republican issue.
Just tell me about the best of who we are.

What I love most about America is that I put my head down on my pillow every night in a free society! My children and I can pray to the God of our choice, listen to the music of our choice, read the books we want to, study what interests us most and then talk about it FREELY! I will never take for granted the freedom that we have and I wish more Americans would wake up and realize how great we really do have it!

I love the fact that I can be born into a land where even when my parents have almost no money and im surrounded by bad influences, if I wanted it bad enough and I made it my goal I could become rich and successfull and pass that legacy down to my children. I could get college scholarships and grants, I can get money from the military, I can do fundraisers out in the open without being shot or robbed. I can drive a car with gas cheaper than most of the world pays, I can get with 1,000 womena dn not call anyone them back, and eat steak every night at a restaurant for 13$.
But MOST of all... I love Old Glory, the flag which symbolises all of the above things, I love how I can walk out in the morning and salute it as it flies at full mast and know I am paying tribute to a few hundred of the best, most accomplished years in human history. And that a tear can drop from my eye just because I realize that I can be a part of it without having to illegals cross the border or escape from an oppressed land to get here, I was born into fredom, at one point only the Kings sons had sucha luxury.

Having had the opportunity to travel extensively, the thing I like most about America is the people. This is a land of essentially good and generous citizens, who, if not harassed by government, show kindness, forgiveness, inventiveness, backbone, and just plain old fashioned decency whenever they are put to the test. This is a country full of people who, while they disagree on many issues, always come together to support the concepts of individual liberty and who show to a remarkable degree, a sort of collective wisdom that is much beyond what one would anticipate.

The United States Constitution

The fact that the American Constitution is the oldest Constitution still in existence today, and that the same Constitution is the only constitution that considers human rights innate to people, whereas other documents consider rights granted to the people by the State.

The freedom to do, be, and achieve anything you have the will, brains, and desire to dare, without restrictions of parentage, race, or gender. We are the most upwardly-mobile society in the history of the world, despite our problems with race and class divides.

Freedom of speech... Just the FACT that I can dissent against the government and not get thrown in jail for it.
