Almost 200 years have gone by since our great country was born, and now in this year of celebration we shall look back and see what has occured. As we look, we must not forget how our forefathers fought for our freedom, or how they stood for liberty for all mankind and cared enough to try and make this a perfect country. Through the years much of our pride has fallen, promises have been broken, and many lies proven to be true. We must not think of this as the falling of a great empire, but the rise of a better and more understandable nation. Our pride in the United States will determine where we are going in the years to come. As one of our great presidents answered, Ask not what WE GDINGL 5k- . 'nl'lllllyl'x... your country can do for you, but what you can do for your countryfi So as we sit back and remember 1976 as the Bicentennial year, we must feel pride in our hearts. That we as Americans will be doing everything possible in the years to come to make the United States of America a better nation for future generations. Ted Green
