United Against All Forms of Terror
Studying in remembrance of the War on Terror
As we looked back on this infamous day, a day of dread, and a day of terror, we must be united against all forms of terror in the world. Wherever there is terror, that should be the target of America and its allies to ending that threat. As a superpower, we must recognize our strength and influence. There is no country like America and America was forged to lead the world. Our founders wanted us to show the world how to govern and to mend our destiny with nations and peoples who need us and respect us. We can no longer be blinded to our influences and we must be careful about who we allied ourselves to. With our alliances, we can free people and with our alliance, we can bound people.
America has roots in the world's philosophies, we were influenced by France in building our government. France's philosophers came up with the idea of three branches and representative democracy from Ancient Greece who was the first to prove democracy as the government of the people, where all citizens vote on who to lead and pledge to unite no matter what, whether war or peace. Even Ancient Roman influence America because they showed the power of diplomacy and eloquence in governing which made them last for a thousand years. As our first ally, France helped incredibly with reinforcement and reviving our war efforts. This is when America knew its power in friendship, the power to win wars, and lead. We must rely on our friends and our allies to help make us a better democracy protecting our people. We must stand behind the inspiration, French literature-inspired at the time of the Revolutionary War.
America has to care about its allies, advocating through the institution it was given. The United Nations made to forge a friendship and govern the world. Our participation must be democratic. America could not prosecute the war criminals alone because we learned throughout history that this only causes resentment and revenge. When we united, seek the good of our fellow allies above money we are being a light. After World War 2, we lighten the load on the former Axis and gave them a chance to repay. We should do this with our allies especially to preserve their loyalty. We cannot simply give overbearing edicts to countries that have less than us. We have to want to make them like us as is their wish to be like America in their way. Nations looked up to America, we inspire the world and the fight for freedom. When we make the standard high and overbearing, we lose the inspiration that pulls us all together. Some countries have been burden with the pain of discrimination for hundreds of years and we have to take part in the responsibility because America's allies could have benefited from this maneuver. America must show itself to be redeemable. Our creed demands that we answer to what we have done in government and society whether within America or around the world. When we turn our backs on the country that need an economy, schools, and hospitals, it has a great impact on the future of the world. America and its citizens carried weight and we must never forget our worth and how important it is to do something right. We are reminded in history for instance on the Vietnam War and how it could have been prevented if the President would have welcomed a new eager leader of a nation called Vietnam at the League of Nations. Tragedy can be prevented if the world united and come together if America united and come together and lead the world towards greater peace which is its purpose and rightful place in history.

The Unknown FDR
This book is fascinating about the 32nd President of the United States. FDR at a young age overcame so many obstacles. At a young age, he was judged on his looks and skin complexion. He had many fights at the boarding school yet he survived. In politics, FDR had been a bit divisive as a young politician. He used to work for President Theodore Roosevelt but change his direction due to a conflict of interest supporting President Woodrow Wilson. And when he staked out his political destiny, he was successful however he met defeat with dignity. It was Rochester, NY that gave FDR a fighting chance for his political future, and he thanks them in this book, which made him a powerful governor. He knew what it was like to be judge and undermined. He believed that character and faith and hope can overcome any obstacle. As President, he hesitated to recognize America's slaveholders' past, he believed in the good of America's Second President and chose him over America's Seventh President to celebrate at the White House and among his supporters. FDR knew the implications that race and political division can have on a presidency. FDR's book describes how he had to fight the supporters of Hitler before World War 2. He saw Hitler's movement persuading America and he took every measure to end the propaganda. FDR set out to do what Hilter could not do in front of the American public with his diplomacy, recognization, power, and eloquence. He showed Hilter to be 'deranged' and he deactivated him by careful, rational planning. FDR had "open the door" for America to have nearly the world as its allies. FDR allowed countries no matter how rich or how poor to join the fight and support ending Hilter's Axis and his Nazis. FDR was no stranger to working with people of diverse backgrounds and he promised them "a share in the glory" and this proves the true opposite of Hitler and his Axis. FDR rewarded the world with peace when America and its allies won. And he even believed that "enemies of war" should have a pathway for redemption and that tainted leadership should be punished. FDR believed "Thou shalt not lie" and "Thou shalt not steal", these were his keys to policy and what he expected from his family, friends, and supporters. FDR never believed that he was the smartest or cleverest, he believed that he was meant to be decisive and lead surrounding himself like President Jefferson with the greatest minds of his time, no matter gender or race. The book details how his wife, Eleanor was his "right-hand person", she would do the things that he found impossible, run the race that seemed almost unbearable, being the matriarch of a family dynasty while keeping her husband's health intact. Eleanor Roosevelt, like many of his closest friends and supporters, were the "conscious of FDR", showing him the true America, where inequalities lie and the hopes and fears of the American Public. Eleanor Roosevelt took one more step and join the oppressed as she learned from President Woodrow Wilson's wife who made decisions for her husband when he was ill. Eleanor Roosevelt reinvented the role of First Lady. No one ever knew why FDR ran for a fourth term even though they believed the third term was due to World War 2 until this book, where he explains that he asked his family. FDR's presidency was about family values, relying on their strength, building up their weakness, and maintaining love and respect.

A Few Moments More
You’ll give it one more minute, and then you’re headed back inside. It’s pretty chilly out, after all. Not that that’s a real issue - you’ve stood out here for longer, and in colder weather. The snow is nearly gone already; tiny, dirt-stained islands of the stuff form a shrinking archipelago dotting the sea of green that is your backyard. Striations of sunlight dance through the trees at the edge of the woods and paint the scene in a camouflage of brown, green, and gold.
