Making America great... Again?

Make America Great Again... The positive (and incorrect) message from a very vile person. Looking at this phrase out of the context of the man who said it, I just don't understand how we can be making America great again when it was never great to begin with. Now, don't get me wrong, America has had great moments and accomplishments, but it has never been great for everyone. To this day, women, people of color and varying ethnicities, those who practice religions other than Christianity, different sexualities, and immigrants (excepting some of the wealthy) have all faced continuous discrimination that upholds even in today's modern, progressive world. An outstanding amount of these people have not found America great at all, and America has not given them a reason to find it great. So I agree, let's make America great, not again but for the first time. And let's do it by loving and accepting everyone, with equal opportunity for all, no matter what the insignificant differences are.





(And not by electing a man trying to build a wall to keep people out and all the minorities oppressed)
