00:00:48.880 perspective on american history that prove what america is all about and talks about

00:00:55.520 why we have strayed from what the constitution and what our founding fathers really meant

00:01:07.120 our history and from our founding fathers you can expand your knowledge and fortify your loved ones

00:01:21.600 for the patriot post the patriot post has been around for a while and i really loved this primer

00:01:27.680 so i really think it's worth your time to subscribe download it and read it especially now that july 4th

00:01:33.440 is coming up so big thanks to the patriot post for sponsoring today's video and go ahead and subscribe

00:01:39.120 today as we come up on july 4th i want to talk about why it's okay to love america because i think

00:01:45.360 nowadays when there's a lot of strife going on in our country it can feel like a crime to love america

00:01:52.080 and i want to say why it's okay to love america even if we think there are things that need to change

00:01:57.440 so let's get into it the first thing i want to talk about is that america was founded on great

00:02:03.200 principles i'm not going to get into the whole history of america because anything i say in a short

00:02:08.480 video is not going to give enough credit to our founders and to our history to really be in-depth

00:02:13.680 enough to explain why we came into being but we were founded as a country to give independence

00:02:20.080 freedom and liberty to the people who lived here we were founded with the idea that we were going to

00:02:25.520 give liberty to the people give power to the people that the people were going to have a say in their

00:02:31.600 government and that we would have a true democracy where the people were voting for what they wanted

00:02:37.440 where the government couldn't have too much power because it was divided into three separate branches

00:02:42.880 so that it would never become such an overlord over us so that we wouldn't actually be able to have

00:02:48.160 freedom and liberty and those are wonderful principles and principles that we should be proud

00:02:54.240 to be a part of that we believe that everyone was created equal and that we all deserve the freedom to

00:03:00.640 make choices nowadays the government has encroached on those liberties quite a bit but that doesn't mean

00:03:06.960 we don't love what america stands for so here's the thing about being an american being an american is

00:03:12.640 like being in a marriage if you love your husband if you love your spouse that doesn't mean that you

00:03:19.120 don't see their flaws and you don't want to help them be better it means that you have to love them

00:03:23.600 first before you start making changes you can't change something that you hate and if you love america then

00:03:31.120 you can make it better i love america and it's okay to love america even if you do see flaws now

00:03:37.760 there are certain people who say we have flaws that go way too far in one direction and there are

00:03:42.960 people who say that we have flaws that go way in the other direction and i'm not talking about

00:03:47.440 overhauling what this country stands for i'm saying there are things that we can fix in this country

00:03:53.120 and there are things that we should go back to to what our founders originally meant but that doesn't

00:03:58.480 mean that we don't love what our country is and what we were built on america is a beautiful

00:04:04.640 country that we are lucky to live in and we are lucky to have that freedom and liberty and loving

00:04:10.080 america doesn't mean that you can't acknowledge that there are certain problems and flaws in the

00:04:14.880 same way that you can love your spouse and they will have flaws and problems you have to love something

00:04:21.840 before you can try and fix it i am proud to be an american because america stands for freedom

00:04:28.320 it does to the rest of the world our constitution has been used as a basis for constitutions around

00:04:34.080 the world since it was written we live in a place of opportunity equal opportunity not equal outcome

00:04:40.240 and even though we're a country made up of all different races all different cultures and all

00:04:44.480 different people we all stand for the same thing we all are americans that believe in liberty and freedom

00:04:51.040 and so it's okay to love those things our founders built this country with freedom and liberty in mind

00:04:57.360 and they were patriots who fought for what we have today our founding fathers are constantly being

00:05:03.280 torn down nowadays figuratively and literally but i think it's important to talk about their similarity

00:05:09.600 to bible characters in the sense of in the torah which is the old testament many of the people

00:05:15.520 were not perfect our forefathers were great men who were flawed who made bad choices who made mistakes

00:05:23.040 and still were able to come back from it and still were able to do great things and it's a lesson for

00:05:30.000 us if our forefathers were perfect then we would look at them and think we could never accomplish

00:05:35.200 anything great we could never be better than who we are and that's the whole point that people and humans

00:05:41.840 aren't perfect our forefathers accomplished great things and they may have done evils as well and it's

00:05:48.480 not to downplay that they did evils but it's to recognize that they did great things too just like

00:05:55.040 we today can make bad choices and still come back and do great things our founders fought for a

00:06:01.120 country that stood for freedom and liberty and it's okay to love our country for what it stands for

00:06:07.120 so i'm telling you this week before july 4th before independence day it's okay to love america and actually
