Right now, we are not acting as a whole. We are acting like a divided and segregated country. And we need to do something about it. Black or white, rich or poor, child or adult, democrat or republican, we are America, and we need to start acting like it. We need to start focusing on the big picture and stop fighting this worthless battle about who knows what among ourselves. We need to start focusing on the fact that one in four children live in households that struggle emensley to put food on the table. That's about 16.7 million children. Or maybe that about 46 people get shot daily in the us. Or even the fact that after all these years we still haven't figured out how to plainly, just get along. And the sad thing is, that problems such as the ones that i just listed are never going to get solved unless we act united. So for the sake of a fresh new year lets all put aside our differences to try whip this country back into shape. Lets all show the world a different America, one that we can all be proud of.
