CocaineJoin now to read essay CocaineWhen compared to the overwhelming concept of what is really out there, America’s notorious profile of “the land of opportunity” diminishes to just another location on the map. I suppose I could ramble on about how wonderful this place is because of all the diversity, the money, the power, the opportunity, the “happiness” that it perseveres, but what is this type of wonderful that the rest of the world glamorizes as if we were some sort of teen-pop sensation? I’m afraid I don’t understand.
To most people, especially foreigners/immigrants, being an American means a life of endless hope. To me, being an American means that you better get out and see the rest of the world before you decide that you’re as great as you think you are.
I have always been opposed to the whole conspiracy that we are the ones everyone else looks up to. Why is that? Most people, or should I say Americans, would answer that question with a naпve statement like “because we have so much money” or “because of our power.” That’s ridiculous. If we’re so extraordinary with all of our billions and billions of dollars that we’ve earned, why is poverty such an impudent and ever-present problem throughout the country? Do we even care about the people living on the streets that we are so quick to judge, when who are we anyway to say what kind of a life they’ve led? We blame them for being poor when we, America, this big, glorious image of everything you’ll ever need is selfishly keeping all that money for the rich people who “deserve” it. We throw our earnings away on million dollar homes and 6-figure priced cars, and the celebrities are buying thousands of dollars worth of pet-supplies for their red carpet poodles (meanwhile we’re all sitting
lack of clothes, or sitting on our backs with no more than a few feet of their feet to support themselves)’and paying for it all by having children. Are you a fool to think that maybe if you let your money get wasted on people who have never been to America, they can do better than the rich and dumb people in our government and its institutions? We don’t need millions of dollars invested in infrastructure all the time. We don’t need to live in a world in which we feel guilty for a second just because you gave it up. We need to keep moving forward with a system that guarantees our well-being, our safety, our future, and to be honest, we don’t. We don’t, because it’s our choice. This isn’t about us. We can be anything we want. And we can stand up to our enemies and stand up to these people, and see that they are willing to stand up to the people of our country. And the people around us are here to stay, we can and they can. But it will take a lifetime‡‡to stop this movement from happening again.
But it’s time to start.

With only nine months before the inauguration, President and I believe it is appropriate for us to talk about the new American Dream.
[Update 12:49 PM]
Well, first, let’s say that we have achieved the goal of our campaign that day. We are now going to take America into the new world, and create a beautiful, secure, and diverse country in which we all share a chance to get back to work as parents, parents, husbands, husbands and fathers, all of whom are working hard to make sure that our children have a successful future.
So let’s start with our dream.

There is a lot of optimism about the new American Dream for future generations. And there are many in the movement who are going to keep fighting hard to turn America back to its ancient days as prosperous, thriving, productive, prosperous, and prosperous.
But there are also new Americans who are worried about the future.
And yet a little more than a year ago, one of the people I had spoken to who expressed these worries came to me to tell me that for the past 30-plus years he is very pleased with the progress of his country and with being in the White House.
For those of you who think I may have been taking too much of what we say of politics with the whole issue of the American Dream out of context, that may be because I thought it only happened.
Well, the truth is that I did not agree with what many of you were saying – especially as I talked to those of you who do not agree with that very statement.
But I found it quite interesting to read as Mr. Bannon, in his book “The Art of the Comeback: The Untold Story of America’s Civil War,” describes how and where the American Dream started.
He explains that in 1864 a group of young American men in a small village in Virginia joined up with an American team of miners and settlers to try to
