ONLY IN AMERICA!

To the Americans who have grown up in America, you will notice a distinction that identifies Americans as Americans. In all of fifty states and in all of the territories affiliated with the United States of America, you will discover different attitudes, different customs, different cultures, different mores, different levels of education, different philosophies, and different unique personalities of each community. The beauty in the cultural differences is that all ideas are open for understanding and respect. The common thread that makes Americans is the willingness to stand up for the rights of the "underdog" and the sacred tolerance for the different religious values and ethics. To be proud to be an American leads all Americans to safeguard the freedoms that have been won over time even in irreconcilable differences. The Declaration of Independence, the United States Constitution, and the Bill of Rights have been challenged by those individuals who are bent on destroying the essence of what an American stands for personally and holistically. Yes, ONLY IN AMERICA will you find the Achievement Ladder Enthusiasts willing to build up rather than tear down the "freedoms" that are encompassed in the Spirit of 1776.
Only in America will individuals have an opportunity to attend elementary, secondary, and post-secondary educational endeavors to maximize their skills for the career of their choice. Only in America will individuals work to achieve the goals of their lives even when "alien agents" are greedy, dishonest, and unethical. Only in America may an individual's voice be heard through whatever media that is willing to be open to diverse opinions. Only in America are "real careers" initiated by the private sector often in partnership with the public sector. Only in America may an individual's vote be counted in local, county, state, and national elections to propose candidates that are "truly representative" of their constituency. Only in America may an individual choose to "vote their choices" in the retail and wholesale market place. Only in America may an individual "choose the spiritual development" that will transform their time, their talents, and their treasures for the greater good. Only in America will you find individuals who are sincerely generous in assisting the less fortunate and the extremely disabled. Only in America will you find persons willing to live within their means and to avoid a debt crisis. Only in America will individuals have choices in the market place that are consistent with their scale of living as well as their standard of living. Only in America will you find persons who will offer advice and conflicting views to bring about a New America based on the original Founders of this wonderful Country. Only in America will you discover entrepreneurs and intrapreneurs who are willing and inspired to offer their uniques ideas for the benefit of the common good. Only in America will you find individuals willing to respect the legal system when the common good is affected and respected. Only in America may an individual and a community ban together to change human laws that are contrary to the divine law and offer "poor choices." Yes, you and I could go on and on about what we can expect by individuals who are sincerely and prayerfully proud of our American Heritage. Yes, only in America may we hope for a better future when we agree that IN GOD WE TRUST. America, bless God because God has already blessed America with more human resources that are focused on a better tomorrow and a better eternity. Let all Achievement Ladder Enthusiasts ponder the beauty of the American Dream as God has offered to those who TRUST HIM.

Yes, only in America do we allow undocumented persons to roam and cross our borders without any serious consequences. With more than 20,000,000 illegal persons now residing on American soil, the apathy has grown on all levels except the state levels where the challenges are the greatest. State's rights are inalienable as indicated in the Declaration of Independence. However, with pressures from those who could care less about the ideals and the dreams that have been transported to other parts of the world, the States have had to stand up and be counted to respect the laws of the States. Nothing has changed in regard to having immigrants come to this wonderful Country and requesting a visa for whatever purpose for a specified period of time. The social justice is that many undocumented immigrants are enjoying the benefits of what legal citizens had to wait a period of time to enjoy. The time has come to resolve the issue for the best interests of the United States of America, not the divided States of America as promoted from the Washington, DC spin. Our Country is a Land of Opportunity for all legalized immigrants or for those who are waiting patiently for the Federal agencies to complete their bureacratic paperwork and documentation. In God We Trust is still our preamble and our source of real confidence in this United States of America.
