Pride in My Country

Being proud of your country is a great thing. I am proud of my country! I am proud because we have lots of freedom. Having freedom is enjoyable because you don’t have restrictions of what you can and can’t do. Our country has laws but we still have freedom. The United States of America has a president. Our president is Barack Obama, he makes the decisions but he doesn’t “rule” us. There are kings and queens they’re rulers because they make you do things. In the olden days, there were slaves and around the world there were dictators. Since 1789 we have had a president of the United States. Currently, people should realize how lucky they are because of where they live and what country they live in.

In addition to freedom, our country helps other countries. When I see on the news all of the things are army and marines do overseas. Helping other countries, might help us because it could cause less fights or wars. Thinking that my country is helping others is amazing because it makes me feel happy. If I ever go to another country, I can set a good example because many people immigrate to the United States. People come here because they need a new life or there are many other reasons. I know I am lucky to be living where I am living.
