I AM AN AMERICAN

I AM BECAUSE OF THOSE WHO CAME AND GAVE THEIR ALL

I AM BECAUSE OF GREAT MEN

I AM BECAUSE OF SACRIFICE BEYOND THE CALL OF DUTY

I AM BECAUSE OF MY HERITAGE My family has

been here since 1637, Abraham Adams was a farmer in Maryland. Thomas Scarborough Parker was a landowner, a miilwright. They were God fearing Christians.

I AM BECAUSE ALL MEN ARE EQUAL

I AM BECAUSE ALL MEN ARE FREE

"Give me your tired, your poor,

Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free,

The wretched refuse of your teeming shore.

Send these, the homeless,

tempest-tost to me,I lift my lamp beside the golden door!"

I AM FOR LOVE, PEACE AND TRANQUILITY

I AM BECAUSE I AM FREE TO SPEAK MY MIND

I AM THE LIGHTHOUSE ON FREEDOMS SHORE

I AM AN AMERICAN BECAUSE I BELIEVE THAT

"We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that

among these are

Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of Happiness."
