The Amazing U.S.A.

Authors note: I am writing about our government, freedom and military

How do you feel about your country? The people of the United States feel good about their country. In our country we can walk tall. We have a voice that is allowed to be heard. We have a really strong military; freedom, and our government fights for what the people want, that is why our country is the best

The United States of Americas military consist of four branches. These four branches are army, marines, air force, and navy. Our military protects and defends the people of the United States. Our military is only as strong as the people.
                                                                                                                                     
Freedom is the right to make a life decision, whether you want to go to the military or to be a business man. You can also choose what religion you want to be. In America we have the freedom to speak up unlike in other countries. I would like to thank the veterans that gave us freedom

In our country we choose our government by voting. Every four years we elect a President. A president is allowed to run two terms. Each term is 4 years long. Our government consists of two parties republican and a democrat. This government isn’t place to better the people of the United States.

Our country is the best because of our freedom, military, and government. I would recommend that more people come and live in the U.S.A. It is a wonderful place to live and raise a healthy family.
