The Flag of freedom and loyalty.                                          When I see the flag in the wind I think about all those people who died to give the freedom we have today and to make Americans proud of them.

Every solider that has been in a fight had loyalty to America and courage and the reasons why is here.

Our way of schooling has changed because we have realized that more freedom in a classroom leads to more prosperous students, which then leads to a more prosperous school. In the same way, more freedom in a country leads to more prosperous citizens, which then leads to a more prosperous world.

He talks about the prosperity in the West by those who enjoy freedom, and how that could continue to spread into the East if given the chance. He believed that prosperity could only come when there was freedom.
