War Liberalism to the Present


It is that fundamental belief -- it is that fundamental belief -- I am my brother's keeper, I am my sisters' keeper -- that makes this country work.

OBAMA: It's what allows us to pursue our individual dreams, yet still come together as a single American family: "E pluribus unum," out of many, one.

I choose this two because I can't seem to agree with it. The meaning I got from these two passage is that this country is made up by each individual helping out another. For example I help my sister or friend because they need it and can't do much. In my opinion this country is not like that. In this country there is more people that only look out for them self then helping others. Before anyone can get ahead of you they will try and make you fail. Americans are not family we are each other enemies instead of must of us working together we work against each other.

Marshall

Citizen is a status bestowed on those who are full members of a community. All who posses the status are equal with respect to the rights and duties with which the status is endowed.

I chose this quote because it is true that is what citizen is but I also disagree with this sentence. All who posses the status are suppose to have equal statuses but that is not the case. Citizen are suppose to have rights and feel freedom in their community but many citizens don't. There is a lot of citizen that in their own community don't feel safe because of other individuals and the law enforcement sometimes don't even help. When they do want to help is like freedom to the citizens doesn't exist. All for work enviroment there are a lot of citizens that don't get hire or get a low paying job based on their race. If we are all so call equal because we are citizen then why is ther so many discrimination,judgements and stereotypes. We as citizens of a community should help each other out and be equal instead of being against each other.
