Presidential Speech
My fellow Americans........

I come before you tonight not to bury the current U.S. in insults and criticism, but to raise her high like the precious gift of the statue of liberty that was given to this country from France out fo pure thankfulness and respect.

I am not concern with what America is today my true focus is what America is so eager to become.

That is why I stand before with sincerity and honesty in my heart and a burning, determined desire to make America once again "the country that sits upon a hill", and the epitome of a strong united nation that stands E Pluribus Unum.

Thank you , all of you, for taking time out of your busy schedules to lend an ear to my Presidential Speech on this beautiful night of February 22, 2005.

I was born to a loving family, but in a dangerous environment in Charleston, S.C. In a single parent I was reared and I learned a lot about struggle and literally learned how to make a dollar out of 15 cent. Though it was hard my mother instilled this determination that I am able to share with you all on this night. She became my brother and I driving force and never settle for less. As a young child I sat and realized that an insignificant child like myself could one day make a difference in this united nation.

The few years between my father's incarceration and my mother and his separation he did teach me a lot of meaningful values of life. He insured me that having great character can carry you farther in life than any amount of money or anything materialistic value. He instilled in me that being a people's person would always make your life easier in anything you do even in an a Presidential Election. So, right that second my political siding was chosen without me even knowing. The principles of the West Wing was instilled in me a that age of 7 years old. I was practically raised as a politician of the People's Party because that was the party that benefitted me and all you who stand here today. Not

    Fathers brought forth on this continent a new nation, conceived in liberty and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal. We have come to dedicate a portion of that field as a final resting-place who gave their lives that that nation might live.

    Throughout my entire life, I have found that hard work and dedication can help me achieve any goal that I set. I have overcome the separation and lack of decent parents, incarceration of my oldest brother, and many other events with the morals and skills that were taught to me by my grandparents (who are my legal guardians). Due to their influence and love, I have always put my best foot forward and looked at the world with optimism. Since the second grade, I have been in gifted/honor courses, exceeded through my classes, and have made many friends. My backbone does not consist of selfish desires or influences; it consists of my morals and the family and friends that I do have pushing me to change the world.…

    Pledge Allegiance to the flag. The flag represents that we have freedom in speech and equal rights for women and men. I am proud because I have equal rights as a citizen and I am able to go to school unlike other nations. I am also proud that I can have my own religion without having someone else force me into a different one. The flag stands for the republic, which is a democratic government elected by the citizens of the United States. Our republic is different then some other nations,so we should be glad that we, as citizens, can vote for leaders. I am glad of this because if we didn't have this, then we wouldn't be able to have our…

    “The America I believe in” is not what most people think of. I think about what happened back in the year of “1918.” Yes, I understand, why would I think of that? Well, like I said, when we get home, we relax, we don’t go into a BLOODY battle or have to witness the horror of senseless DEATH. “Relaxation,” if you haven’t noticed that’s a word we take for granted. This also goes along with these following word: humanity, peace, health, education and FREEDOM. I have selected these words today to tell you that not everyone has that.…

    I was born in the suburbs of the Bronx and raised in the Brooklyn, New York. At a young age, I never understood the amount of hard work my parents had gone through to raise me and give me a great life I have today. They emigrated from South Korea to this country in hopes of the American dream. They had their definition of the American dream as working hard to become successful. They were strong believers in that hard work would result in great results and rewards. My parents took huge sacrifices in order to make it to this great nation. They had left their families, their jobs, and their culture to start a new life. My father went from being a chemical engineer to making a small living as a delivery man for a clothing company while my mother worked as nurse in a small clinic in downtown Brooklyn. We didn’t live in the best of neighborhoods, but it was sufficient enough to provide shelter and food. It took a lot of pain and long hours for my parents to provide for me and they have taught me the most crucial life lessons. They told me that the most important lesson is life is to always put other people before you. They explained how if you are always there to help others and be there for another person, they will return the favor to you. This helped shaped my identity as to be a caring person who is always willing to help out those in need. Throughout the rest of my life, I would encounter this life lessons…

    America, the land of the free and the home of the brave, a country united in principle, a land of promise: is it still here today? Thomas Paine came to America in 1791 and was amazed by the concord, the principles of society, and the justice of the government. Because of the increased noncompliance to the principles that have kept us free, our country begins to break apart. America has survived and flourished because of the principles it was founded on, but today the unity of people and ideas begins to crumble as we lose all sight of true, pure principles. Our nation is dwindling because of multi-culturalism, the abandonment of principles, and the drifting from its democratic republic past and into a more socialist America.…

    As seen through these events in our country’s history, America does not exist in complete "cordial union" as Thomas Paine suggests. What is important though, is that the contrasting ideas in this country are what encourage change. Our government, though never completely fair, was created to allow us freedom to change.…
