I have no vision of our country being any other way than what it is now. Any less relaxed, any less free. If we had Taliban officers scuffling through our homes and schools, I simply couldn't call it America. If we had laws against having more than one sibling, I simply couldn’t call it America. If we had government officer positions inherited instead of elected, I simply could not call it America. Here in America we are free. Each and every one of us gets a say in almost everything we do. It may sound cliché but yes, of course I am proud of our country. We may have issues with our economy, even our nation's health, but in the long run these problems really don't matter. Compared to other countries-we are very fortunate to have such a great space where everyone is free to express their creativity. To rephrase the question previously asked; Why wouldn't I be proud of my country?
