My Vision for America America has had many changes over the years, some for the better, and some for the worse. Right now, more than any other time in our history, America needs a BIG change. With the right leadership, right values and principles, my vision for our country is very promising. What are the right values and principles? Who is the right leader? This is my vision for America. First, we need to start off with finding the values and principles. What are values? The definition I have found is “a person 's principles or standards of behavior; one 's judgment of what is important in life.” The word “standard” is very important. To have a value you must have a standard. Who makes or creates the standard for our values? God originates any standard for any value we will ever have. He is the perfect standard and is the only reason we are alive and living on this earth today. The main point we need to extract from this is that without …show more content…
One of the biggest changes we have seen is a change in our Presidents. We have caught glimpses of great presidents throughout our nation’s history, presidents such as Abraham Lincoln, Franklin Roosevelt, and Ronald Reagan. Abraham Lincoln conquered slavery and helped to heal the nation through one of our nation’s greatest trials - the Civil War. Franklin Roosevelt made reforms that helped our country triumph over the Great Depression. Ronald Reagan showed his resilience and courage while surviving an assassination attempt and a gunshot wound. This implies the question, ‘Who is the right man or woman to lead our country?’ In short, America needs a president that can lead her people, make good decisions, and turn our country around. My vision needs a good leader for promising results.
Respect, virtue and a need for a good president are just a sample of what our country needs. If America can secure these values and this leadership, then my vision for her is very bright. Without out these, America may have a rough
America: The Beacon of Hope To many, America is considered the greatest country in the world; a place where anyone’s dreams can come true, a beacon of light in a world of oppression. Open doors give everyone the chance to enter, with a chance at a better life, with the mentality that working hard will let you succeed, building America up from the original 13 colonies to the 50 states we have today. However, in recent times there has been a change in people’s frame of mind, and as a result America has started to slip from its number one status.
I believe that with assistance from the government, my vision can become reality. The economy of the United States is undergoing a massive industrialization as we move away from manual labor more and more to rely on towering factories, machinery and mills to complete jobs that were once done by hand. While it creates a more robust
Throughout United States history there have been several influential Presidents. Many modern day Presidents such as Bill Clinton, Ronald Reagen and Barack Obama, have made remarkable impacts on society. They have worked and created programs to positively affect our nation. Some of these actions include the Family and Medical Leave Act, Violence Against Women Act, minimum wage increase, Tax Reform Act of 1986, Environmental Protection Agency, deregulation, SDI, Affordable Care Act, and the Dont Ask, Don't Tell Repeal Act of 2010. These are just a few of numerous actions/programs these men enacted.
America has not had an easy history. Short compared to other countries and nations, but definitely not easy. So in these times of great strife and great anger and great need, there needs to be great leaders who can inspire the very People to climb out of the deep pits that they have sunk so far down into, to stand for something bigger than themselves, standing as one when the world wants them to stand apart. Two of these great, awe-inspiring leaders was Franklin Delano Roosevelt and Ronald Reagan, arguably two of the greatest Presidents this nation has ever experienced. Roosevelt and Reagan both were leaders in a time of great, great sorrow, great pride, amazing victories and devastating losses, and to get through such times, all they needed
Finally, the chorus became an earthquake — and the people turned out by the tens of millions, and they were all united by one very simple, but crucial demand, that America must put its own citizens first ... because only then, can we truly MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN. Dying industries will come roaring back to life. Heroic veterans will get the care they so desperately need. Our military will be given the resources its brave warriors so richly deserve. Crumbling infrastructure will be replaced with new roads, bridges, tunnels, airports and railways gleaming across our beautiful land.
I would like to begin, sirs, by announcing; I am not the first with these thoughts. Patrick Henry, Benjamin Franklin, Thomas Paine – only a few of the men that share the same notion. It is true; I do not hold the reputation of these men. Nonetheless, I have been involved in American Politics for the past decade . We have passed the simple point of peace.
He wants us to reach for the stars in personal fulfillment and not wanting to be an average Joe. Social relevance, the accessibility to knowledge, and internal openness as I said earlier can help mold a brighter future in America, a future of honesty, integrity and
Former president Barack Obama, in order to regain voters after a huge controversy during his 2008 presidential campaign regarding things his pastor said used numerous rhetorical strategies to persuade his voters. Obama had to persuade his voters to stick with him. Obama used repetition, allusion and many others to get his point across to the audience. In his speech in which he is talking on racism and cultural differences he uses repetition to further emphasize his point.
Progressivism was a reform movement that began during the end of the 19th century and continued through the first couple decades of the 20th century. During this time, many writers, politicians, and social welfare advocates came forward as leaders of the Progressive movement and sought to solve societal problems that were caused by capitalism and the Industrial Revolution. While these Progressives often differed in what they saw as America’s main problem and how it could be fixed, they shared the common belief that in order for the reforms to work, the government needed to take the lead, be actively involved in the reforms, and be more democratic. All citizens, similarly, were to take responsibility for their society as well. What follows is
America is a big superpower, a force to be reckoned with, and a corporate country. America is built upon freedom and money just like anywhere else. But with the way I think that were going, that’s the only thing America will be in the future. And the American dollar will be worth less and less, and the economy will crash more and more. Like I said earlier America is a corporate country based upon cash.
When you ask a non American “What does America mean to you?” , they will more often than not answer with hamburgers, obesity, NFL and Reality TV. That is okay because who doesn 't love hamburgers and football filled Sundays, who doesn 't love watching silly reality TV shows and who doesn 't love a cheat day every once in awhile? Those people are judging a book by its cover and fortunately for me… well my thoughts about America are quite different. When an individual asks me “What does America mean to you?”
My fellow Americans, I would like to thank you all for coming out today to listen to me speak on behalf of the future. America, the future is now. I want to strive in making a major impact on our country. Being President of the United States comes with a lot of responsibility. With all this responsibility, I want to make certain that America is the best it can be.
In the current political environment, the question “What does it mean to be an American” is one that really caused me to think and reflect deeply. And while some are vowing to “Make America Great Again”, I think there are already a number of things that already make America great and make me proud to be an American. Early on, our founding fathers suggested through the Constitution that at its core, what it meant to be American was simply “life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.”
The American Dream has the nationality ethos of the United States. It is a collection of goals that everyone born in America has freedom, equal opportunity for prosperity and upward social mobility. They can achieve through hard work in a society with few obstacles. However, the fact is cruel. Nowadays, America’s economic inequality is growing.
The future of America is in the hands of this generation that is witnessing our once great nation disintegrate into chaos. The United States of America is supposed to be a place of freedom and peace, but now it is viewed as a country that is crumbling under the unhappiness of its own citizens. We should be viewed as a country with hope to lead the helpless out of misfortune. Abraham Lincoln once said, “My dream is of a place and time when America will once again be seen as the last best hope on earth.” The America that I envision will be seen as that last standing
