The fact that you weep for your nation, indicates the degree of loyalty to the United States - and for very good reason. Despite the bumpy road (not the least in the treatment of different "races"), I have nothing but the utmost respect for a state that was genuinely founded on the principles of personal liberty, the separation of church and state and - although oft-ignored - common ownership of natural resources.

These days will pass. Keep the strength, keep fighting, and America will again become a state which people respect rather than despise.
