What has always made our country special is that it doesn't matter where you come from; it matters where you're going. Our job is to make certain the pathways are open to both our boys and our girls.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I grew up in a country that I thought was special. And it was.
For many of us who were born and raised in this country, including me, it's sometimes easy to forget how special America really is.
I am a country boy at heart.
My family's story isn't special. What's special is the America that makes our story possible. Ours is a nation like no other, a place where great journeys can be made in a single generation. No matter who you are or where you come from, the path is always forward.
What makes America special is that people come here, assimilate and become American with all of the rights and responsibilities citizenship bestows.
As a woman I have no country. As a woman my country is the whole world.
You know, the diversity that America has is so special. It's starting to really become a cool thing for young people.
I grew up as a country boy.
My wife Kari and I have three incredible kids. And like parents everywhere, we want our children to grow up in a country and a world that is peaceful, and where, if they work hard, they can reach their God-given potential.
We choose our sex, our color, our country, and then we look around for the particular set of parents who will mirror the pattern we are bringing in to work on in this lifetime.
