"Americans" the Beautiful

America: A nation of pride and patriotism. We live in a land of freedom and democracy. We are the idol nation. We are top notch. And yet, we are very disliked. In this world we livein today, Americans are looked upon as the snobby, war-causing, obese country. But, to most Americans were are supreme and mighty. Why are some countries so against our beautiful land? Americans have offered so much to the world for which we are not acknowledged. For instance, we were right there in WWII, sending in supplies and troops. The Berlin Airlift was a great success because American pilots were flying in food and supplies. After WWII, soldiers were sent to Vietnam to help them with there difficulties, and they weren't even acknowledged. Now, our soldiers are risking their lives in Iraq, fighting against terrorism. I think the rest of the world has been oblivious to the great efforts America has pu forth. Another great thing about America is its advanced technology. U.S. scientists are searching for cures for diseases and researching for ways to improve the enviroment. The light bulb was invented by Thomas Edison, an American, Bill Gates invented Microsoft and he is an American. Even though Microsoft has little importance in smaller countries, it has made communicating and researching so much easier. And, it has a future in those smaller countries with the rate at which it is expounding. Americans may seem like snobby, unkind, obese people, but the amount of help it has offered the world is incredible.
