The American Dream
The American Dream to me means that you have the freedom and liberty of an american and the same and equal rights as everybody else. You get to have a free education in this great country that we live in. Plus when you are here you know you are safe because we have the best military in the world. Some others view the American Dream as living in a big house with a white picket fence and having 2 or 3 kids, but that is not what it means to me. To me it means that you are able to do anything that you want to do in the world when you put your mind to it, especially when you get the education like we do now. Also you could have any religion you want and believe in it all you want and you wont get discriminated. In conclusion the American Dream is what everybody lives for and i think everyone should get to experience it because I am living in it and i love it.
