Let's play a game. I'll give you some descriptors and you see if you can identify the country.

* Ranked 7th best country for education (US News and World Report)

* Give more to charity, per capital & as a percentage of GDP than citizens of any other country (Forbes)
If you listen to all the negative news coming from main-stream media, you would never guess America is the country I just described. We live in a country today where the MSM, political pundits, establishment class and sadly, many university students have made it in vogue to complain about this great country we have the good fortune to live in. To hear the elites tell the story America is a place no one would want to live, yet we have an illegal immigration problem. A country where celebrities claim they will leave if their candidate doesn'twin an election, yet never follow through on that promise.
I am tired of all the nonsense and apology tours about America. In the 200+ short years we have been a country, we have done more to improve the lives of citizens of the world than any country in history! When trouble comes to any nation, America is looked to as the one who will provide the most assistance. When brutal dictators kill innocents, it's America the world looks to for resolution. America is a great country no matter how much it pains elite snowflakes to say it!
Many complain about the condition of our country yet do nothing to change it. I'm done with that nonsense. Today, I make a decision to be a PROUD AMERICAN. I'll wear an American lapel pin proudly. I stand for the National Anthem and openly shame you if you don't do the same. America is still the "shining city on a hill" and I will never apologize for her. I hope others will join me in being a proud American today. I close with the words from the late Meryl Haggard, "If your talking about my country hoss, you're walking on the fightin side of me."
