Is America Greatly Divided?

What is Being An American In America All About?
How divided are we as a country and on what issues?

In view of the recent election, it dawned on me, that perhaps this is not the country I thought I knew and is wondering where it is going as we press forward.
Surely, America has evolved many times over and today, there seems a major divide.
The negative campaigning that occurred surely kept everyone glued to their TV and in the wonder of what is going to happen next. The tearing down of one’s character is not American for most Americans. Knowing what is true about a candidate to qualify him or her be important and investigated if a crime has been committed.
I just think that America is better than this and that we’ve come so far in our relationships with other people who are different from us to make such a drastic change now.
The diversity of many other countries has really made America what it is today. And that is a beautiful thing.
As an American, I don’t want hate to be a part of who I am.
We are all human beings and with many faults, but it seems that we as a country, should try to improve on what we have already achieved.
This is the America we live in and I want to see Americans taken care of and to continue to support those who are without a voice.
We still have a voice to express our needs and/or concerns to improve the lives of all Americans.
Let your voice be heard and someone will listen.
If everyone is successful then we can all benefit and live a great life. There are many issues that be a concern for Americans. Some of them are health, education, jobs,
poverty, global warming-environment, and securing the Constitution as we know it; protecting the rights of all Americans.

What are your views on these topics:

1. Is America A Divided Country?
2. What Is Being An American To You?
3. What Do You Want America to be?
Thank you all for visiting this site as this is my first article on this site.
I could have written about almost any topic that would have been a little more enlightened, but I believe this topic is hot on everyone’s mind as we move forward into uncertainty and speculation.
I remain hopeful that God will lighten the heart of the elected candidates to do the right thing.
I hold no animosity against anyone I feel is doing what is right for our country, but in view of this election, I am concerned.  The media have influenced a lot of what we saw and so much came out of the woodwork, that i hope that people just don’t chew on every bone thrown at them to pep things up on a continual basis.
As changes in the administration are occurring, I find it important that you maintain a balanced schedule on what you are already doing and be vigilant and outspoken about what changes are not good for you and your families- sooner than later.
Don’t forget that they work for us and that you are still an American with a Constitution to protect your rights.
