Celebrating America - with all her faults

---

"Sure I wave the American flag. Do you know a better flag to wave? Sure I love my country with all her faults. I'm not ashamed of that, never have been, never will be." -John Wayne

There is a negativism and cynicism that seems to permeate the world of social media. Presidential candidates insinuate that we are no longer a great country. I think that our nation is great because of how we deal with our faults. Our history is rife with examples of how we have corrected our faults.

So today I am celebrating America and the many freedoms that people have fought so bravely for.
