What is an American?

A good trait for an american in my opinion would be that we love freedom. For example July 4th 1776 is when we became The United States of America we declared independence from britain. I love my freedom and don’t take it for granted because i know that there are some people who would die to have what US has today. Many familys in the east don’t have as much as the US. Famlies back east would be happy with a roof over their house where as to us in the US being happy if we had 2 cars, familes in east would even be happy with hot running water or electricity, as to Americans wanting a new cellphone when they just got a new one the year before.

A second trait that would define an american would be that we’re materialistic. For example a average american family would have 2 cars as to the below average family only being able to ride a bus or walk. I fall in to this category because i am always trying to figure out whar acsessory would go best with certain things. I also get driven to school knowing that i could easily walk the 2 blocks that would do my body good now that would fall under a different category in my opinion on americans we are [Lazy].

And lastly an example that defines an american would be determined. An example would be our amazing president that tries to open new doors and make things easier on us in this horrible recession. There is alot of dirt on americans but i am sure there is dirt on other countries that is way deeper then ours. Like Bin Laden and fellow Al-Qaeda leaders that did the attacks of 911 hideing away Afghanistan somewhere.
