God Bless America.... The Land of Freedom and Rights for All.

Thank you for your Kind Words God Bless America. This land is still dear to many Americans, especially our ancestors who came through Ellis Island in New York to start new lives and businesses from other countries, and found a new and better way of life to prosper and be free! Indeed the words Give me your tired and your poor, and persecuted were appreciated by immigrants who appreciated free shores and opportunities.

This land has been great not because of the government but because of the people who had common goals of hope for their families to start new lives, and so many generations later there are still family members who carry on businesses started many years ago. America is under threat from radicals who want to destroy us, and what is constructive and has a purpose. They want to destroy the Beacon of Hope!
