Good Afternoon Josh:

I am not only proud to be an American, I consider myself fortunate to live here, and live here with a positive attitude about my country and the direction it is heading.

I am proud of my President and his entire administration.
I thank God I do not waste my life away whining and complaining.

Regards,

BobP

I am a very proud and fortunate U.S. citizen and recognize how blessed we are.

I am a firm believer in personal responsibility, too, and do not blame others for my own mistakes.

"At what point shall we expect the approach of danger? By what means shall we fortify against it?
Shall we expect some transatlantic military giant, to step the Ocean, and crush us at a blow? Never!
All the armies of Europe, Asia and Africa combined, with all the treasure of the earth (our own
excepted) in their military chest; with a Buonaparte for a commander, could not by force, take a
drink from the Ohio, or make a track on the Blue Ridge, in a trial of a thousand years. At what
point, then, is the approach of danger to be expected? I answer, if it ever reach us it must spring up
amongst us. It cannot come from abroad. If destruction be our lot, we must ourselves be its author
and finisher. As a nation of freemen, we must live through all time, or die by suicide.

I AM PROUD TO BE AN AMERICAN

God Bless the U.S.A

Lee Greenwood

If tomorrow all the things were gone
I'd worked for all my life,
And I had to start again
with just my children and my wife,
I'd thank my lucky stars
to be living here today,
'Cause the flag still stands for freedom
and they can't take that away.

I'm proud to be an American
where at least I know I'm free,
And I won't forget the men who died
who gave that right to me,
And I gladly stand up next to you
and defend her still today,
'Cause there ain't no doubt I love this land
God Bless the U.S.A.

From the lakes of Minnesota
to the hills of Tennessee,
Across the plains of Texas
from sea to shining sea.
From Detroit down to Houston
and New York to L.A.,
There's pride in every American heart
and it's time we stand and say:

I'm proud to be an American
where at least I know I'm free,
And I won't forget the men who died
who gave that right to me,
And I gladly stand up next to you
and defend her still today,

God Bless the U.S.A.

I am American and Proud of it.

Mostly because of it tradition of freedom. To a lesser extent because of our countries achievements.

But even if there was some place else that was even more free and provided for greater opportunity (and IMO there is not) and I moved there, America would still have a special spot in my heart.

YES, I'm Proud to be an American! For so many reasons, including:

Preamble: The Constitution of the United States of America

We the people of the United States, in order to form a more perfect union, establish justice, insure domestic tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the general welfare, and secure the blessings of liberty to ourselves and our posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America.

The Americans Creed
by William Tyler Page
Adopted by Congress - 1918

I believe in the United States of America as a government of the people, by the people, for the people; whose just powers are derived from the consent of the governed; a democracy in a republic; a sovereign nation of many sovereign states; a perfect union, one and inseparable; established upon those principles of freedom, equality, and humanity for which American patriots sacrificed their lives and fortunes.

I, therefore, believe it is my duty to my country to love it, to support its constitution, to obey its laws, to respect its flag, and to defend it against all enemies.

America The Beautiful

O beautiful for spacious skies,
For amber waves of grain,
For purple mountain majesties
Above the fruited plain!
America! America!
God shed his grace on thee,
And crown thy good with brotherhood
From sea to shining sea!

O beautiful for pilgrim feet
Whose stern impassioned stress
A thoroughfare for freedom beat
Across the wilderness!
America! America!
God mend thine every flaw,
Confirm thy soul in self-control,
Thy liberty in law!

O beautiful for heroes proved
In liberating strife,
Who more than self their country loved,
And mercy more than life!
America! America!
May God thy gold refine
Till all success be nobleness,
And every gain divine!

O beautiful for patriot dream
That sees beyond the years,
Thine alabaster cities gleam
Undimmed by human tears!
America! America!
God shed his grace on thee,
And crown thy good with brotherhood
From sea to shining sea!

I would find that I carry at least a drop of blood from all races if I follow my ancestral line back to the beginning of recorded time but I will concentrate on the present.

I am an American mutt and very proud of it!

My familial ancestors have fought in every American war since the inception of this great country and fought for this land prior to its inception. I know and fully comprehend the importance of freedom and the responsibilities of safeguarding that freedom.

So:

I am a citizen of the USA and very proud of it!

I was born in England, most of my recent ancestors are from the border area of England and Scotland. I have been a US citizen since 1993 after moving here in 1981. BTW, I was NEVER here illegally, I always had the right visas and work permits.I am proud to be a US citizen, but equally proud of the support that the UK gives in helping to defend our freedoms. One of my nephews is over there right now helping to enforce the Iraqi no-fly zones.

Josh, There is no other country on Earth like the U.S.A. It was formed on the basis of freedom, and the formation of a democracy that gave every citizen a part in the building of the nation. Those that came here were ready to roll up their sleeves and go to work building a country that had never before existed, and they succeeded. The citizens of this country have more freedom than any other on the planet. To preserve this freedom, it has become necessary to build, and maintain, a formidable military to protect our shores, and world wide interests. The proof of the pudding, is that people from just about every other country, are doing anything to gain a foothold in America, and the other nations of the world, have come to us to use our military to help them with dictatorial problems.

AM PROUD TO BE AN AMERICAN, WILL WAVE THE RED, WHITE, AND BLUE SYMBOL OF OUR NATION AT EVERY OPPORTUNITY, AND WILL DIE IF NECESSARY TO KEEP THIS NATION SAFE, AND FREE!!!

For you who find inspiration in song, the 4th and last verse of the Star-Spangled Banner, our national anthem.

Oh! thus be it ever, when freemen shall stand
Between their loved homes and the war's desolation!
Blest with victory and peace, may the heaven-rescued land
Praise the Power that hath made and preserved us a nation.
Then conquer we must, for our cause it is just,
And this be our motto: "In God is our trust".
And the star-spangled banner forever shall wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave!
