I was born and grew up in Hamilton, Oh. A small city just north of Cincinnati I’ve seen most of America on the back of my fathers Goldwing motorcycle, And myself driving across The States from Virginia to California, Florida to Michigan. I’ve only lived in a few places other than Ohio until now. I’m currently living in The United Arab Emirates.
I’ve lived in Al Ain, Abu Dhabi as well as Dubai. In the time I’ve lived here I’ve met many people from all over the world, Afghanistan, Pakistan, Uzbekistan, The Philippines, Syria, Russia, Jordan and many others. I’ve had some serious and not so serious discussions with a lot of people. What I have learned is really amazing to me to hear from people I have been told by the media in America that hate America in actuality love America and want to go and be American. They love everything about America most non-Arabs like George Bush, Muslims and Christians alike.

How can this be?? Most people like George Bush because of his resolve and honesty.
This information is incredible. One thing I know from speaking to all these people is Men and women don’t make war politicians do. And all the poor countries in the world are poor because of corrupt governments. I was talking with a Bengali man the other day
And he was telling me about a book he read about George Washington. He told a story that I had not heard, About a President standing at his door seeing a farmer with an ox and cart not able to make it through the mud, A soldier standing outside the fence refused to help this farmer, But President Washington went out in the mud and helped the farmer push the cart through the mud. He could not believe this. I told him that in America the country was ran by ordinary people. Every citizen in America has the opportunity to be president. He found this peculiar because the rich and noble ran his country.

He also told me how he admired Americans for sending so much money to Bangladesh after the tsunami, however the people never received this money because the rich leaders kept it. He didn’t blame America, He blame his corrupt government.

I hear stories like these on a weekly basis. And really feel sorry for people that have to move to a foreign country to make $180 a month and live with 5 other people in one room.

Everyone I have met and spoke to wants to go to America and I tell him or her, “no don’t go the government is corrupt there to. Wait a few years till the American people wake up and figure out that the country is in trouble”
