Reply #10: Massachusetts is what America was and is supposed to be [View All]

[Blaukraut]

As an immigrant by marriage, not by choice, I can look at the US more objectively and with less national pride than those who came here from difficult circumstances, or those who were born and raised here. Historically speaking, and what the founding fathers had in mind for a great nation, Massachusetts fits that description almost perfectly. I say almost because even our state needs aa little more work.
But I've literally been all across the country with hubby being in the service and travelling for fun, and I can honestly say that I would not want to live anyplace else but here in Mass.
The important fight we face, all of us, from all states, is to turn this country on the whole into the ideal it was meant to be :-)
