This is Our America
"We are a nation of many nationalities, many races, many religions bound together by a single unity, the unity of freedom and equality." . - Franklin D. Roosevelt
I came across this on FB and it struck home as a simple explanation of what our country is, or in the minds of some what it used to be. Even if the latter is true I know the former will be true again.
How do you answer the question - What is America (the United States)?

Oh and follow the NT rules, they are important
I served for over 20 years in support of the ideas presented on the flag above.
I would do it again
Thank you for your service. I would do it all over again,also
America will be great again, how soon will depend on how well Christian nationalism (aka MAGA) can be resisted.
Some might say that not only must MAGA extremism be resisted, but that those that resist need to find their wasy again and each bring one more along on the road to reason
At least I think some may say that
we have to find a way to get back to the middle
Christian nationalists are not a threat to our country, because there is simply not enough of them. Many on the left seem to think that anyone who voted for Trump and supports the Republican agenda has to be MAGA (whatever that means), which is simply not true.
From what has been going lately it would appear to a reasonable and honest person that unbridled radical progressivism is the real threat to our representative republic and way of life
You’ve got that wrong.
Once progressive extremism was brought under control we had a chance. Therefore that flawed, crazy self deprecating progressive manifesto was pushing this country quickly into the shitter.
Most Americans never bought into that nonsense and it helped Trump get reelected in 2020.
Big time.
I'd be more worried about people the former Houston Democratic mayoral appointee who called the victims of the flood "little c***ts" because she falsely believed it was a whites only camp than these mythical christian nationalists.
There's a deep racial hatred and obsession on the left that is going to cause massive problems if it doesn't change soon.
Here's another view of this ignorant racist fool..
BYE! Cruel Lefty Removed From Houston Food Insecurity Board After VILE Comments About TX Flood Victims – Twitchy
That is one very troubled, deeply screwed up individual.
Wow, just wow!
On the bright side, she's probably killed any hope of a future in politics.
One can only hope ….
It is amazing that no one has an opinion or a view or an answer to the single question which was the syubject of the article.
How do you answer the question - What is America (the United States)?
Everyone simple hated on dissed the side they don't support.
And that my friends is what is wrong with the U.S. right now - Hate from the left for the right and Hate from the right for the left and no focus on what our country is supposed to stand for.
Your question is too simplistic, broad, and vague. Try again
Nonsense
The broadness of the question is because there is no one answer - each individual has to formulate their own thoughts on what America means to them.
I don't think the question is too broad for you - try again
What is America?
It's an idea started by some really smart men who didn't want to live under tyranny.
Most of us today don't want to live under tyranny. The US Constitution is a great document with some fantastic ideas. We just need an executive, legislative, and judicial branch to adhere to it.

Well said
