Just to set the record straight

I don't admire America for what it is.

I admire it for what it wants to be, and for what it could be.

Well put! I admire it more for what it could be; sometimes I get the idea that it wants to be something else altogether.

Hear, Hear!

That's why I cry on the fourth of july, and during every patriotic song - because what we could be is so beautiful.
