What's great about America

Today I challenged Jenna and her friends to submit their essay (500 words or less) to the Enquirer answering the question - "What's Great about America?" For any of them that get published, I will give them $100 a piece. That's what's great about America - the competitive spirit!

Of course I will contribute an entry also and it may include that theme. I heard once that in the DNA of the USA is Entrepreneurial spirit. The rich stories of inventors, implementers, ingenious engineers, and inspiring leaders. America attracts these individuals from around the world.

A nation of immigrants. Risk takers willing to do what it takes in the pursuit of happiness. America is the collective weave of it's people, processes and principles aspiring to be good - delivering great.
