  2. I liked the movie because I thought it was interesting how there was only a narrator, no other commentary. I also liked Thomas Benton's paintings because they show a different yet interesting perspective of America.

  7. America is a country with lots of problems. And those problems don't seem to be getting solved. Soon as I'm 18 I'm moving to Europe. I'm serious. I don't wan another George Bush. Ugh

  17. my America , is as diverse as an ocean. sharks and pray and everything in between. they go along with there life but face hardship along the way.some you learn form some you dont. Together or seprate it is all the same. either way you can run away from your hardships. but if you do it will follow, untill you relize what happened and why. you cannot relive your life in heaven untill you live your life you have right now. this is how i look at my america.
