f we want to return to an America that stands as a beacon spreading light to other nations, we must return to our core values of liberty, democracy, equality, justice, tolerance, humility, and faith. - rachel1225has quoted8 years agoMany Americans view the value of faith in terms of their religious faith, but the faith that makes up the idea of America is more than a faith in God. It is faith in humanity’s ability to cultivate their own virtues, shape their world, and devise institutions to govern themselves.
- rachel1225has quoted8 years agoAmericans have a desire to be humble, but we have a reputation for being arrogant; especially in how we deal with the rest of the world. We are quick to point out the failings of other countries, but painfully slow to recognize our own. Most of the world sees our lack of humility as hypocrisy and are not motivated to follow us. We cannot lead by coercion for long. Showing humility will allow us to establish our ability to lead, not through power, but through the consent and request of other nations.
