Americans

as far as americans are concerned they are as different from each other as anyone can be. we hold some things as truths.  we believe the individual is paramount in the scheme of things. we believe the government is here to serve us not the other way around. we believe in the good of other folks and not that everyone else is evil. we don't like people to butt in line - it is unfair to do this.  we  believe in god but don't believe in one way to worship him . there are as many ways to worship god as there are individuals. we believe in the rule of law. we are a nation of laws and that is what makes us great. no one is above the law.  we are courteous to others and helpful what n we can be.  we believe that a laugh is the medicine that cures all problems. we are not  friendly to strangers but we do tolerate them . i guess there are more but i an't think of any right now. i hope this is a start,  i didn't know that english wasn't the official language. i know that some official documents are printed in english and spanish. that is the future of the united states. we will be a hispanic majority before many generations and english sill be a minority population. i will be dead before that happens - thank god!
