I am proud of my country, but not some of the decisions it has made. There has been some hard times in the past but we have grown stronger from them. I am also proud of the people who have died for our country in the many wars we have been in. Many young men have died in these wars to keep our country safe.
The things that I was not proud of that our country did was how long it took to react to an oil spill and the other natural disasters. Why do we help other countries during natural disasters even when we are still recovering from one. The people in New Orleans are still recovering from Hurricane Katrina and we are off saving people in other countries. We need to help ourselves before we help others.
The things I am proud of are how we have a lot of allies in the world, and how we are the first ones to help other countries. By helping these other countries we get their trust in return. That way if our country gets hit with another hurricane or earthquake, other countries will be there to help us.
I am proud of the men and woman in other countries. They deserve our respect, each and every one of them. They are risking their lives for our country and in return the clearly deserve respect. I honor every man and woman who has fought and died for this country throughout history, and everyone else should too.
