The Constitution What does the Constitution mean to me? That question in itself has many meanings. I personally believe that if we did not have the Constitution we would all be in turmoil and have no direction to go in. The constitution was put in place to install rules and laws to abide by as citizens of the United States of America. I can honestly say that some of those Amendments have been challenged by a lot of people throughout history and have not always ended the way that they would have

Alien or Human‚ Which of the two? What does the word “alien” mean? To me‚ aliens refer to extraterrestrial beings who live in outer space. The idea of saying alien to another person is very unappealing and disrespectable as we are disregarding them as a person who does not belong in this world. Author Francie Diep of “Why did we ever call undocumented immigrants ‘aliens’?”‚ questions the idea himself on why immigrants who come illegally are to be defined as these terms.

What Patriotism Means to Me In the aftermath of the September 11‚ 2001 terrorist attacks on the United States we are seeing many forms of Patriotism. I was surprised to find when I researched this word that it had a negative feeling associated with it. I believe that patriotism is actively showing your support for your country‚ standing up for what you believe in‚ and fighting for our individual free will and independence.

Patriotism does not mean a lot to me at the point of my life. The way our government is treating immigrants is rude and irresponsible. Immigrants come here thinking this is where they can start over and then they do and our government throw it all away by deporting them. I would never work for my country in the army. The reasons are because I would never want to serve our president. Our president never thinks about what he is going to say and is rude to almost everyone. I mean patriotism would mean so much

What does it mean to be “poor” in America? For the average person‚ the word poverty implies significant physical hardship. For example‚ the lack of a warm‚ adequate home‚ nutritious food or reasonable clothing for one’s children is a hardship for the average person. By that measure‚ very few of the 30 million plus individuals defined as “living in poverty” by the government are actually poor. Therefore‚ I have to agree with Segal‚ “What is poverty to one person may not seem so bad to another” (Segal
