Where Did America GO?

What is America

How is it going, universe? My name is Brianna, it is very nice to meet you. I'm here to talk about what is right and what is wrong with the world today, right now. Especially in our beloved country that is known as the United States of America. Well, so far we elected some bigoted person who thinks he knows everything but doesn't know anything. Maybe something about money, but not about running a country. But, we should just give him a chance, right? Well, sure, why not since we've already elected him president. We can't let him divide us just because of our different views and the color of our skin. We can't let him do that, no. We must stand together and go against together. We all maybe different colors and have different social views, but we can't keep going against each other. That is what's wrong with society today. There is always a race between everyone. I may be white, but I'm not racist. Just because I'm white doesn't mean I'm racist. Just because you may be Mexican or African-American doesn't make you ghetto or an immigrant. Our country was founded by immigrants, and we took land from the Native Americans. Well, not us, but our ancestors did.

We were all divided back then because of segregation and America having a race problem. America still has a race problem, and most people are thinking that there isn't. Well, Betsy and Randall, there is a race problem. There are many other problems as well, but I will mention them later. There is a race problem with Muslim women getting their hijabs ripped off their head just because they are the wrong religion. Hm, odd, does that sound related to the race problem? Yes, it is related to the race problem. They aren't the wrong religion. They live in America, a nation that is suppose to be free to pray to whomever your religion prays to, a nation that isn't suppose to take rights away from people, and a nation that is suppose to give equal opportunity to everyone who comes to live here. But, everyone thinks Christianity is America's main religion. It isn't, hun. America doesn't have a set religion. Nor do we have a set race. America is filled with so much culture and diversity, and no one wants to praise it and get along.

This Isn't America, this Isn't America at all. What is America anymore?

Summer is hot and humid, and it's almost like summer was made specifically to drink the refreshing, cold, crisp wonderful, delicious, nutritious nectar of the gods.

Bruce Springsteen's Top 7 Lyrics

Everything Bruce says in his classic rock songs.

bruce springsteen album cover born in the usa

Anyone who was born and raised in New Jersey (or anywhere really) knows of Bruce Springsteen, whether or not they like him is a whole other situation. I hope that his hundreds of classic rock songs and famous high energy performances, even in his sixties he can put on better concerts than people half his age, are at least recognizable to people of all ages. Love him or hate him (I identify with the former) you have to admit that some of his songs and interviews have inspirational quotes and lyrics.
